The Utah Inland Port Authority's board of directors voted unanimously Tuesday to approve the Central Utah Agri-Park Project Area. The objective of the fifth and latest project area is aimed at improving the future outlook for Utah's family farms, economy and food security.
"The Central Utah Agri-Park adds a critical piece to the puzzle in meeting Utah Inland Port Authority's statutory mission to support and maximize long-term economic benefits for the state of Utah," said Danny Stewart, economic development director of the Utah Inland Port Authority.
including Sanpete, Juab, Wayne, Millard, Piute and Sevier counties, though authority leaders and local agricultural producers alike agreed that the project area would benefit producers throughout the state. Joining the Six County Association of Governments in supporting the project are the Utah Department of Agriculture and Food, Utah food producer groups, Utah Department of Transportation, Utah's water agencies, federal and state land agencies, private sector entities and others.
"What this park can do with farming is make it where you can grow grain crops, you can ship them out of the state you can keep them locally," Jensen said. "There's countless things that this will do for producers in our area."
