Green Plains Inc. is continuing to grow its cattle feeding segment with the purchase of Bartlett Cattle Co., reports Ag Professional.

Bartlett & Co., Kansas City, MO, agreed to sell its two feedlots to Green Plains Cattle Company for $16 million, plus working capital. Included in the transaction are Bartlett Cattle’s feedlots in Sublette, KS, and Tulia, TX, with a combined capacity of approximately 97,000 head.

The move effectively ends more than 30 years of cattle feeding for Bartlett & Co. which will continue to focus on its grain merchandising, flour milling and feed manufacturing.
