Eli Lilly announces $3 billion expansion in Kenosha creating 750 jobs but raises concerns for local farmers

Eli Lilly has announced a $3 billion expansion in Kenosha, which will create 750 permanent jobs and 2,000 construction jobs. The company aims to increase production of diabetes and weight-loss medications in the area. While construction workers see this as a positive opportunity, local farmers express concerns. Farmer Travis Smith fears the expansion could threaten his family's farm, which has been in operation since the 1960s. Smith worries that increased development will lead to more traffic and potential loss of farmland. He feels that local farmers are not considered in the planning of such expansions.
