On March 10, the membership of Progressive Ag Cooperative approved its unification with MKC by a majority of 85%. Progressive Ag Cooperative and MKC will officially unite on May 16, 2022.
“The approved vote shows our members see the same vision the Board did in partnering with MKC,” said Derek Totten, Progressive Ag Board Chairman. “We look forward to improved efficiencies in operations, and the opportunity to expand our technologies and other services to producers’ operations in our footprint.”
Totten shared the membership saw a benefit in joining with MKC and its strong customer service, facility improvement, branding, innovation, and employee and customer education.
“Together, we identified benefits we can gain by combining the two organizations and we look forward to working together for the future of our cooperatives, the members and our employees,” said Allan Wegner, MKC Board Chairman.
