Big Dairy Continues Move Into State

Vreba-Hoff now has 41 operational dairies in the Midwest, and 16 more under development, including the one up in Randolph County, so says a piece in Brownfields, which covers the announcement this past Saturday that the mega dairy intends to open up a new operation in Cass County:

Plans were unveiled Saturday for an $18 million dairy operation to be constructed in Royal Center, about 35 miles northeast of Lafayette.

Ohio-based Vreba-Hoff Dairy Development and the Logansport-Cass County Economic Development Foundation are working together to build a 3,200-cow dairy farm on 90 acres in northwestern Cass County.

The Far Hills Dairy is expected to employ 32 people and will produce more than 25,000 gallons of raw milk daily.
