Representative experience
AgValue’s experience with grain facilities requires an understanding of the complete agricultural asset—not simply acreage or building area. The scope can encompass land, specialized improvements, supporting infrastructure, production systems, and relevant machinery and equipment.
The valuation considers how the physical components function together, the market for continued agricultural use, and the evidence appropriate to the assignment. This integrated approach gives owners, lenders, investors, fiduciaries, and legal professionals a clear and supportable view of value.
Project profile
The subject operation includes approximately five million bushels of grain capacity. AgValue was retained for its ability to analyze both market evidence and business income in determining the going-concern value of this highly specialized asset.
The multi-bin elevator complex was originally developed in the 1970s and expanded over time. Major additions included a 1,334,000-bushel vertical bin, 1,793,124 bushels of horizontal temporary storage, heavy-capacity scales, and replacement of primary grain legs, heads, and drags.
The facility also includes a rail spur of approximately 2,600 linear feet with capacity for 50 cars, a high-capacity loadout leg, an LP gas dryer, offices, warehouses, shops, and utility buildings.
