MILFORD, INDIANA, U.S. — TruHorizons opened its newly expanded grain facility on Sept. 8 in Milford, Indiana, U.S. The $30 million expansion includes eight concrete silos, two steel bins and an attached ground pile with a total storage of 4.3 million bushels. The grain elevator has access to both the CSX and Norfolk Southern mainline rails.

 

“The current unloading speed is 40,000 bushels per hour (bph) and the rail load out is 60,000 bph,” said Kyle Lehmen, TruHorizons grain manager.
