About Us


Bill Harrison

River Ag, a division of Waterway Ag, was born on the banks of the mighty Ohio River in Metropolis, Illinois. Mr. Bill Harrison and Mr. Karl Kotter founded the company in the early 80's. Although both Mr. Bill Harrison and Mr. Karl Kotter have passed, their sons Rodger Harrison, Rick Kotter and Bill's stepson Howard Crittenden, continue the legacy. Spring 2011 will bring Rodger's son Blake home from college. The third generation Harrison will help manage the business.

River Ag has surrounded itself with long term employees who are committed to helping our customers maximize their profits. With river terminal fundamentals and strong supplier relationships of quality products, River Ag continues to grow throughout the tri-state area.

The foundations put in place by these gentlemen and their employees will allow us to meet our customers' needs far into the future.
