When Five Star Cooperative decided to upgrade its Burchinal, IA branch location, it essentially built a new grain elevator adjacent to its 770,000-bushel facility.
The project, which began in April 2012 and was completed in time for the fall harvest, included two new 550,000-bushel steel corrugated tanks, a 110,000-bushel wet tank, a 4,700-bph grain dryer, and a 900-bushel receiving pit.
