Last of the old Landmark in Sidney, OH imploded this morning. Now owned by Cargill making room for expansion of their bean plant. 4/10/21

Dennis DeBruler commented on Jon's post
It appears that they bought the ADM elevator that was east of Cargill along a CSX/Big Four industrial spur.
They tore down two generations of silos as well.
I included the shadows because they indicate the relative height of the structures.
Molly Van Wagner-Petersen: That was a tall guy!
Jon Baker: Molly Van Wagner-Petersen bin deck 120’ so prolly bout 200’.

The existing bean plant.

Jon Baker commented on Dennis' comment
 Yes The ADM facility. I’m old school and still call it Landmark! Hell we still call our 50 year old High School the NEW SCHOOL! The tanks were knocked down over the last few weeks with a huge excavator.

While Cargill is investing across seven states, the largest projects will take place in:

  • Sidney, Ohio – Cargill is expanding its soybean crush site, which will significantly increase production levels while providing state-of-the-art receiving and loading capabilities, and ultimately more value for customers.
  • Cedar Rapids, Iowa - Cargill is increasing production capacity at its soybean processing facility and is more than halfway complete on this project.
  • Wichita, Kan. - Cargill will soon more than double soybean unload capacity per hour, and offer additional automation and safety upgrades.
  • Kansas City, Mo. - Cargill will make on-site automation enhancements that will triple per-hour truck load out capacity, translating to more efficient time management for drivers.

All facilities will continue to operate while construction and expansion projects are underway.

Cargill is a global leader in oilseed processing. These investments are part of the organization’s overall growth strategy in the U.S. and create an opportunity to better serve customers on both ends of the supply chain.
