THE QUICK READ
Black Gold Farms runs a potato-handling and cold-storage plant in Yorktown, Indiana, part of its nationwide seed and chip-potato supply network. Work here centers on moving potatoes through cooled storage bays and packing lines that keep tubers in shape before they ship to growers and processors. The site holds close to 16,000 pounds of ammonia, enough to require a formal process safety management program, since federal rules kick in at 10,000 pounds. Black Gold built the site into a seed potato hub near Yorktown starting in 2019, coordinating seed supply for its growing operations nationwide.
