Many agronomy faculty, staff and graduate students volunteered for the Iowa Soybean Research Center’s annual Meals from the Heartland meal-packaging event on August 1st to kick off Soybean Month in Iowa. Cargill provided financial sponsorship for the ingredients, which includes soy protein. More than 50 ISU volunteers packaged 38,000 meals in 2.5 hours at the Hansen Agriculture Student Learning Center. Most of the meals will stay right here in Iowa with some going to SHOP and Food at First. Thank you to all who volunteered for this wonderful cause! See you next year!
