The investment will include the construction of a new manufacturing facility, located at the company’s global headquarters, will produce biological fertilizers and crop inputs, producing over 66,000 gallons of biological fertilizer products per shift per month.
“This USDA grant is a major step forward for farmers seeking more sustainable solutions,” said Dr. Steve Borst, vice president of Alltech Crop Science. “By expanding our production capabilities here in Kentucky, we are investing in our local economy, providing farmers with high-quality biological solutions that improve soil and crops and contributing to a more resilient agricultural system.”
The project is being supported, in part, by a $2.34 million award from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Fertilizer Production Expansion Program.
“Kentucky’s manufacturing and agriculture sectors have been crucial in contributing to our state’s recent economic momentum,” noted Andy Governor Beshear. “We continue to see global companies like Alltech invest and reinvest in the commonwealth and our communities, providing quality jobs for Kentuckians. I want to thank Alltech’s leaders for their years of commitment and investment in Kentucky and congratulate the company on receiving this award from the USDA.”
Alltech specializes in animal nutrition, crop science, and food and beverage solutions. The company currently operates five bioscience centers and more than 75 manufacturing facilities globally.
