A local agronomic retailer will become a little bigger on September 1st. United Prairie LLC out of Tolono, Illinois announced plans to purchase Miller Ag Service, based out of Cowden, Illinois. Miller Ag Service will continue to operate as Miller Ag. United Prairie CEO Tim Hughes says that the companies had worked together in the past and that made this move easier.

Hughes says that there is a lot of promise for the future of United Prairie and that he hopes people remain comfortable with the changes coming.

At the end of the day with all of the consolidations going on, Hughes is just happy that they can continue focusing on the communities that they serve.
