A St. Clair County grain warehouse surrendered its operating licenses to the Illinois Department of Agriculture today.  Handy Feed Handyscape, Incorporated has been closed since April 2nd, when department staff discovered assets were insufficient to meet the requirements of the Illinois Grain Code.  Ag staff took control of the firm to protect the interests of its farmer customers.  The surrendering of the licenses will enable the department to liquidate those assets and pay valid grain claims.  A meeting has been scheduled so Department of Agriculture staff can explain in greater detail.  Anyone who has grain in storage at the facility or has not been paid for grain sold to the company is encouraged to attend the meeting, which will be next Wednesday at 6 p.m. at the Millstadt Knights of Columbus Club.
