This is the second time this year that Cargill has announced an expansion. In Dec. an expansion was announced for its Kindersley, Sask. Facility. Construction for the expansion is expected to start this month, with hopes to be completed before fall’s harvest. The cost of the Rosetown expansion hasn’t been disclosed.
