This rendering, submitted to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, shows Falcon Land's plan for its concentrated animal feeding operation. The owners said Thursday they decided to withdraw the proposal.

Falcon Land LLC, a company planning a feedlot northeast of Riley, said in a letter Thursday they have decided not to move forward with the project.

Founders Jacob Hagenmaier and Dan Thomson said in the letter their goal was to unite and give back to the community.

“Being good neighbors and community members is core to our values,” they wrote. “As such, we’ve made the voluntary decision to not to move forward with our investment in this location but hope to find opportunities with progressive agricultural communities that share our values to build future leaders and opportunities.”
