What is the benefit of collaboration between industry and education?

Students are the future industry leaders. There are a lot of career opportunities in agriculture, and I don’t think many students are aware of them!

What value/assistance can you and your company provide to teachers and classrooms as they connect with you?

E-mail from teachers to help with lesson content; provide materials; possibly coordinate a field trip.

Why should teachers connect with you through GrowNextGen?

For information about applied soybean and wheat research in Ohio.
