At first blush …

• 822 jobs at the Center with a combined payroll of $56.65 million

But that doesn’t tell the whole story.  I used  a properly specified input‐output model of the three county economy to estimate the overall economic impact of the facility to the regional economy

Adjustments to the model

• Models are dumb.  They require savvy operators to run them right.

• Accordingly, to estimate the net financial gains to the regional economy, the economic activity needs to be parsed.

• As the facility is a consumer of corn, which was already in ample supply in the region and in Iowa, one would not assume the plants increased the state’s supply of corn or corn farmers

Next, the individual industries

• The five industries are all different:– They pay at different levels per worker– They have different supply demands from the regional economy

– And they are classified differently• The firms were classified as

– Wet corn milling (Cargill, Wacker)– Other animal food products (Ajinomoto)– Other organic chemicals (Ajinomoto, HFC)
