The Arthur Companies made an unsolicited bid for West Central Ag Services in April. Arthur Companies CEO James Burgum said they were told at the time they were outbid for this deal. “When we learned last week of the definitive proposal, we took a quick look at it and we were surprised, we felt that the Arthur Companies’ offer was better for growers’ bottom line.” A week ago, Arthur Companies took its bid offer directly to the patrons of WCAS. The Arthur Companies published its offer online.
