Total Grain Marketing, based out of Effingham (Ill.), has announced the completion of a major expansion of its Lis facility in Jasper County in southeastern Illinois.
Added to the location west of Newton on Illinois Route 33 was a new 115-car railroad loop track, a 60,000-bushel-per-hour rail loadout system, and 3.15 million bushels of additional grain storage space.
