AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Energy Investment: Antora Energy plans a 5.8-GWh thermal battery in Pratt, a major project to store electricity as heat. Agriculture & Labor: Immigration raids detained more than 100 people in southwest Kansas, straining families and the beef industry; Gov. Laura Kelly addressed the fallout with meatpacking unions in Dodge City. Dry weather is also hurting western Kansas corn yields. Transportation & Construction: KDOT awarded a $104.7 million contract for the north segment of the South Lawrence Trafficway expansion. Wakarusa Drive work is set to resume after utility delays disrupted access to nearby businesses, and KDOT apologized to Lawrence. Farm Costs: Kansas diesel averaged $6.21 a gallon in reports for the week ending Sept. 26, while Rice County’s lowest reported price was $6.29. A new federal order temporarily eases road-tax rules for dyed diesel, which could offer farmers some relief.
