Apple Inc. has paid more than $15 million in recent weeks for Dallas County farmland as part of plans for its Project Morgan data center development in Waukee. Last summer, the Cupertino, Calif.-based firm announced plans for a long-term development of data centers and support buildings that could stretch across up to 2,100 acres. That property, nearly all of it farmland, was annexed into the city to accommodate the development. Since February, Apple has paid $15.4 million for 303 acres. In October 2017, Apple paid another $3.76 million for 102 acres.
