What a lot of folks don't understand is that once you take land used for crops, you really can never go back and reclaim it for that use.<BR/><BR/>Anderson has always been about the short-term, and this Nestle deal may come back to haunt them like the many city blocks that sit in virtual ruin there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1152707330710479382006-07-12T07:28:00.000-05:002006-07-12T07:28:00.000-05:00I don't know a lot about Anderson, so I may have to stand corrected on this.....but when I watched the news report on where this new plant will be located, it is currently a soybean field. What view the news showed of it, it looked rather quiet and pristine with and old barn in the background and everything.<BR/><BR/>Isn't Anderson chock full of empty factories, warehouses, etc.? Why must we continually eat up good farmland? Especially now that Indiana wants to be the leader in alternative fuels. We will need lots of available farmland to accomplish that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
