Feb 06, 2026
Beaver Dam, WI — February 2026 — United Cooperative announced today that it has acquired ALCIVIA’s south region agronomy business, expanding United Cooperative’s agronomy footprint and strengthening its ability to serve producers across southern Wisconsin and northern Illinois.
The acquisition includes ALCIVIA agronomy facilities and assets located in Evansville, Genoa City, and Union Grove, along with the Markesan location, where agronomy and grain operations are closely integrated and will transition together to United Cooperative.
This strategic investment aligns with United Cooperative’s long-term growth plan and commitment to delivering trusted agronomy services, innovative crop input solutions, and strong local relationships to its member-owners and customers.
“We are excited to welcome these locations, employees, and customers to United Cooperative,” said David Cramer, President and CEO of United Cooperative. “This acquisition reflects our shared cooperative values and our commitment to providing high-quality agronomic expertise, reliable service, and long-term value for farmers in the region.”
United Cooperative and ALCIVIA worked closely throughout the transition process to ensure continuity of service for customers and a smooth onboarding experience for employees. United Cooperative was selected as the buyer due to its proven agronomy capabilities, financial strength, and alignment with ALCIVIA’s focus on protecting member and employee interests while ensuring ongoing agronomic excellence.
“This transaction represents more than a transfer of assets — it’s the beginning of a collaborative relationship between the two cooperatives,” Cramer added. “We look forward to building on the trusted relationships already established at these locations and continuing to support growers with the service and solutions they rely on.”
Customers at the transitioning locations can expect uninterrupted agronomy services and access to United Cooperative’s full portfolio of crop inputs, agronomic expertise, and support resources.
