Platinum Crush

Platinum Crush, a new first-in-class soybean crushing facility, is fully operational and crushing soybeans in Alta, Iowa. The plant successfully started-up on schedule in early May 2024 and will propel value-added agriculture forward in the communities of Northwest Iowa while building on its strong agricultural heritage. As a contributing member of the US soybean crushing industry, Platinum Crush will help meet the expanding global demand for protein and oils in the feed, food, and fuel markets, including animal nutrition, human nutrition, and renewable fuels. Crushing 115,000 bushels daily, we are a team of 60 colleagues extracting maximum value from locally-grown soybeans. With strong logistics, best-in-class efficiencies, and proximity to some of the largest feed mills in Iowa, we’re helping position Buena Vista County and surrounding areas into the center of the global food and fuel supply chain.

Our Core Values reflect a culture of commitment and excellence to service our producers, team members, customers and community with a work ethic exhibiting trust, respect, and integrity to each other at all times.
