(KNZA)--A Hoyt business has been awarded a nearly $221,000 grant from USDA Rural Development.
The agency, in a release, said Elm Creek Beef will use the grant funding to double the production of its value-added products while implementing targeted marketing techniques to grow and diversify their customer base.
Working capital funds will be used for marketing, labor, raw agricultural commodity and retail supplies for the business.
The release says three jobs will be created as a result of the project.
Elm Creek Beef was among two businesses in Kansas awarded grant funding.
