In 2001, Farmers Co-op ceased ginning cotton, due to low production in the area. However, the Co-op had already diversified its income by selling Farmland Feeds, transitioning towards a feed store business. In October 2000, Land O'Lakes and Farmland Industries formed a joint venture, Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed LLC, which became the largest feed producer in North America.
In 2001, Land O'Lakes acquired Purina Mills, and Farmers Co-op subsequently began selling Purina feeds. Since then, Farmers Co-op has grown into the leading Purina dealer in the state of Oklahoma, shipping bulk and bag feed all throughout the state.
