York, NE – May 13, 2026 — Central Valley Ag (CVA) is pleased to announce a strategic investment in its Daykin, Nebraska feed mill, positioning the cooperative to support the evolving needs of protein production across the region. Construction is expected to be completed in May 2027.
This investment includes expanding pelleting capabilities, additional ingredient storage, improved loadout capacity, and the addition of natural gas service. Together, these enhancements will increase efficiency, improve throughput, and strengthen CVA’s ability to meet growing and changing demand.
