Congressman Brad Finstad helped secure $10.16 million from the Maritime Administration's Port Infrastructure Development Program for the Red Wing Port Authority and Red Wing Grain. The funds will replace aging barge infrastructure and upgrade loading efficiency for corn and soybeans shipped from the Minnesota port.
This is a modest capacity upgrade at a single river terminal that handles over 500 barges of grain a year. It has little effect on national corn or soybean prices, though faster loading may marginally lower local handling costs.
