Agribusiness & Energy

Agriculture—and the business of agriculture—has been an integral part of Indiana’s economy since the nineteenth century. Today the state’s agribusiness includes energy, food processing and hardwoods, in addition to the corn and soybean crops that cover its landscape. For decades, Bingham McHale’s perceptive attorneys have provided innovative and knowledgeable legal solutions to Indiana’s agricultural industry. This includes long-standing service as counsel to the Indiana State Poultry Association as well as involvement in the 2008 launch of Indiana’s largest wind farm, Fowler Ridge.

Our attorneys are deeply connected to Indiana’s agricultural community. We partner with local farmers and global suppliers, such as Tyson Foods, Cargill, Wabash Valley, Farbest Foods and Boarshead. We also help suppliers/wholesalers including Consolidated Grain & Barge and Wabash Valley Produce achieve their strategic business goals. Our services include:

• Contracts and vendor agreements;
• Merger, financing and purchase transactions;
• Environmental, utility and energy and fuels matters;
• Labor and employment issues;
• Commercial litigation;
• Real estate, property tax and construction matters;
• Intellectual property matters; and
• General corporate, creditor’s rights and regulatory matters.
