Keystone Cooperative announced the completion of more than $10 million in strategic agronomy infrastructure upgrades across three locations in Indiana and Ohio.
The new liquid chemistry and fertilizer loadout facilities are now operational, representing a major investment in efficiency, service reliability, and long-term support for member-owners.
The three regional investments include the Bremen Agronomy Center in Bremen, Indiana, serving growers in northcentral Indiana; the Fritchton Agronomy Center near Vincennes, Indiana; and the Eldorado Agronomy Center on the edge of Eldorado, Ohio, supporting farmers throughout westcentral Ohio. The Eldorado site will also feature a new dry fertilizer hub, currently in permitting phase, bringing Keystone’s total investment in Ohio to more than $12 million.
Collectively, these projects underscore Keystone’s commitment to meeting the rapidly evolving needs of modern agriculture. Each facility features industry leading design, and enhanced operational efficiency, enabling faster and more flexible service to local farm families. The facilities will serve farmers within a 30-mile radius.
“These investments reinforce our longstanding commitment to helping farmers succeed, both today and well into the future,” said Kevin Still, President & CEO of Keystone Cooperative. “As farms continue to evolve in size, scale, and sophistication, our cooperative must evolve alongside them. These facilities give us the tools to better serve our members and ensure we are meeting the needs of a changing industry.”
Local agronomy leaders across the three regions say growers will immediately benefit from faster turnaround times, precision mixing capabilities, and more precise, efficient workflows.
“To keep pace with the farmers of this generation, we must continue to invest and modernize,” said Doug Whicker, Vice President of Agronomy. “These facilities are a clear signal to our members that Keystone is committed to them, to their families, their communities, and to the next generation of farmers.”
The Bremen, Fritchton, and Eldorado projects represent a unified strategy focused on strengthening supply reliability, enhancing environmental responsibility, and improving service experiences across Keystone’s footprint.
“This is a major step forward, not just for Keystone, but for every farm family who depends on us,” Still added.
