It's been proven time and time again: Immigration = Economic Growth.

"...metros that ranked in the top quartile for increases in foreign-born population also posted stronger economic growth, higher employment growth and higher average wages."

[Pivot Bio @pivotbio]

Today we announced a major expansion in Greater St. Louis, #Missouri, to deepen our presence in the Midwest.

We’re growing with two new Centers of Excellence, a Research, Development & Innovation Center in Creve Coeur and Customer and Operations Success Center in Hazelwood.

Together, these locations bring our innovation, manufacturing, and operations capabilities closer together, strengthening how we serve #farmers across the U.S.

By aligning discovery, production, and delivery in one region, we can move faster, scale more effectively, and ensure our crop nutrition solutions reach the #farm fields, where they matter most.

This expansion reflects our continued focus on supporting farmers with reliable, consistent solutions in an increasingly complex environment and reinforces our long-term commitment to U.S.-based innovation and production.

This is how we help bring more certainty back to the farm.

Thank you to our partners and leaders who joined us:

@GovMikeKehoe, Governor of Missouri
David Leezer City Manager, City of Hazelwood
@ChrisChinn, Director, @MoAgriculture
Michelle Hataway, Director, Missouri Department of Economic Development
@EmilyLLB, Executive Director, @39NorthSTL
