Minnesota-based Four Mile Farms has notified Chippewa County officials it is no longer planning to locate a major hog farm near Cornell. Several people living in the area had spoken out against the plans announced in April. The breeding sow farm in the northern part of the county would have included an estimated 65-hundred pigs. Opponents were worried about odor, possible water contamination and the effect on the public health. The company didn’t give a reason for its decision to end its project.
