A word from the Directory Coordinator
 | Tom Blacker |
Calling all newsletter readers! This month was dominated by IDMA and meeting many of our members at Turkey's most important milling event. We were able to return to the headquarters after distributing 10 boxes of directories freely to visitors. New companies such as Unity Scientific and more familiar names like Symaga have renewed and expanded their online and equipment guides sections. The 22nd year may not have the same ring as last year's 21st anniversary edition for obvious reasons, but there will be just as much celebration this time around!
We are interested in new and old names coming to www.internationalmilling.com to register or update their entries; or if you are already in the directory, expect to see the attractive emails alerting you to register! We would like to re-emphasise that the International Milling Directory is really building up to be a better directory than ever and it is moving on at a real rate. Don't miss out on the 2013/14 print edition and for those with products to list, please join thousands of other satisfied customers in this eye-catching, ring-bound publication. Online coverage of your listing and promotion can be done immediately of course. As well as appearing in our mobile-enabled application, in our blog (http://www.millinginternational.com) and through our e-Newsletter pages, your one-time registration takes your company's promotion far and wide. This e-Newsletter itself also promotes our industry members, the key industry events and wider milling activities to an international audience.
Once again, registration and renewal for your company can be done very quickly and simply at www.internationalmilling.com.

TODAY's industry news ...
18/04/2013: Biomin Mycotoxin survey report 2012; Anpario announces increase in sales and profits; county could be home to huge grain facility
Biomin is proud to introduce its 2012 mycotoxin analysis results. This data will enable you to assess the risk level incurred by the use of commodities from certain regions.
In the 12-month period last year, a total of 4,023 samples were analysed and 14,468 analysis were carried out for the most important mycotoxins in terms of agriculture and animal production - aflatoxins (Afla) zearalenone (ZEN) deoxynivalenol (DON) fumonisins (FUM) and ochratoxin A (OTA).
Samples were sourced from several different regions including; America (North and South), Asia (South-East, South and North), Oceania, Europe (Northern, Central, Southern and Eastern), Middle East and Africa. Read more...Anpario plc has announced increased profits and earnings per share for the year ended 31 December 2012.
Total underlying profits before tax and exceptional items increased by 39 per cent to £3.1m (2011: £2.2m) on sales up 23 per cent at £23.5m (2011: £19.2m). Underlying earnings per shareincreased by 49 per cent to 13.32p per share (2011: 8.94p per share) and there was also advance in gross profit, which was ahead by 33 per cent to £7.7m (2011: £5.8m) reflecting the contribution from Meriden's portfolio, production efficiencies and a richer product mix in the UK.
The balance sheet remains strong and debt free with a year-end cash balance of £3.7m (2011: £4.4m) after a net cash outlay of £2.6m to acquire Meriden and associated costs and a final dividend of 3p per share is proposed, an increase of 25 per cent over the previous year's payment of 2.4p.
"The Group's performance has been excellent and shows that the investments made to our production plant and our focus on value-added feed additives is delivering the expected benefits. The acquisition of Meriden has enhanced our product range and global market share," said David Bullen, Anpario chief executive. Read more...A proposed grain-handling facility, expected to handle up to 400 truckloads of corn and soybeans per day, has sparked considerable interest and concerns from residents of southeastern Columbia County, said Steve Rubert, chairman of the town of Fountain Prairie.
An annual meeting is expected to include much discussion on a proposal from Landmark Services Cooperative to locate a new grain shuttle loading facility in the town of Fountain Prairie.
Cassandra Strommen of Landmark described, in a news release, the proposed facility as "state of the art," and said it would be the second of its kind in Wisconsin. The first, in Evansville, was completed in 2002.
A shuttle facility, Strommen explained, allows farmers to store their grain so they can sell it at what they think is the best economic time. Rail systems are part of the structure, so that train cars can load and unload directly from the bin.
