A large Minnesota company will reportedly abandon a large proposed dairy operation near the White Earth Reservation after tribal leaders opposed the project.
Riverview LLP is based in Morris, Minn., and has dairy or beef related farming operations in five states.
The company applied for state permits in October for a dairy operation with more than 20,000 animals located just outside the border of the White Earth Reservation.
The proposed project was one reason White Earth imposed a moratorium on feedlot operations within reservation boundaries.
