The new partnership aims to help more farmers access improved rice technologies as Africa works to reduce its dependence on imports.
The planned factory aims to increase local fertilizer production, reduce imports, and make use of agricultural waste.
The enhancements are designed to improve durability, increase storage capacity, and deliver greater cost efficiency for livestock producers, feed manufacturers, and agribusinesses seeking modern storage infrastructure.
The mill will be built on the site of the company’s former wheat flour mill, which was decommissioned and razed after operations ended in November 2025.
The investment is designed to help the facility move higher volumes of grain and feed products more efficiently, strengthening the movement of grain and feed products through ADM’s North American supply chain.
