Jeff Robertson, president and director of risk management for Marquis Grain, presents the history of the Marquis ethanol plant and outlines the plans for the expansion in progress at the Putnam County Rotary Ag Night March 19 at the McNabb Fire Department Jim Goldasich Center.

When construction is completed, Robertson said the ethanol plant in Hennepin will be the largest dry-mill plant in the world. The expansion will double the output of the plant, and will require more corn from farmers, which will increase demand and prices for corn locally.
