AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Fuel Costs: North Dakota’s reported averages for the week ending Oct. 3 eased to $4.17 a gallon for regular gas and $6.10 for diesel, though diesel remains a major cost for farmers and truckers. Data Centers: Applied Digital is targeting 4 gigawatts of AI data-center capacity by 2030; its CEO says a major customer is building a 1-gigawatt facility in North Dakota. Agriculture: Farmers are wrapping up a difficult, uneven harvest, with results varying widely by location. State producers are also expected to receive $721 million in federal farm-support payments. AgTech: Grand Farm broke ground on its Innovation Campus expansion and secured $5 million for an indoor testing track. Manufacturing: Badland Batteries opened its lithium-ion battery factory in North Fargo, a boost to the state’s defense manufacturing ambitions.
