The head of the Michigan Soybean Committee says a new partnership in the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Seaway is expected to incentivize ag export movement at ports.
Janna Fritz tells Brownfield the Gateway Incentive Program this shipping season is offering a 50 percent reduction on tolls for new shipments of soybeans and agricultural freight through the Seaway.
“We absolutely hope that this new partnership creates an opportunity to increase the supply chain diversity and resiliency for the benefit of all soybean farmers in Michigan and anywhere along the seaway,” she says.
