ABERDEEN, S.D. (AP) — Two large agriculture cooperatives in the Dakotas plan to merge.

The South Dakota Wheat Growers and North Central Farmers Elevator say they plan to join and create a newly named co-op. Officials will work to finalize details of the deal over the next several weeks before a vote of each co-op’s members, likely in June.

Officials say the goal is to create a stronger and more sustainable business.

The Aberdeen-based Wheat Growers and Ipswich-based North Central Farmers Elevator both are grain and agronomy co-ops that operate in South Dakota and North Dakota.
