Caudill Seed has made the difficult decision to close its plant in Crescent, Oklahoma, due to the ongoing and severe drought conditions in the region. The drought has significantly impacted the agricultural sector, leading to reduced crop yields and increased operational challenges. As a company deeply rooted in the agricultural industry, Caudill Seed understands the critical importance of sustainable water resources for its operations and the broader farming community. The closure of the Crescent plant is a strategic response to these environmental challenges, allowing the company to focus on optimizing its resources and supporting its other facilities. While this decision is not taken lightly, Caudill Seed remains committed to serving its customers with high-quality products and will continue to support the agricultural community during these challenging times. Caudill Seed will shift the plant’s operation to their plant in Granite, Oklahoma. The company extends its gratitude to the employees and local community in Crescent for their support throughout the years.
