Making progress at the
Hal Ross flour mill
MANHATTAN, KAS. - Construction of the new Hal Ross flour mill
and wheat quality laboratory at Kansas State University in Manhattan hit full gear last month, as builders made progress on the
facility. The flour mill will serve as a standard mill processing facility,
while also allowing flow and equipment changes that will support
research in the milling process. The facility also will house a second
milling unit for specialty milling of grains such as corn and sorghum.
An adjacent area will provide for grain storage and cleaning. The
new mill was funded by donations from Hal and Mary Lou Ross, Archer Daniels Midland Co., Cargill, Inc. and other private donors and
is expected to be completed and operational by the fall of 2006.
