North Central Regional Sun Grant Center
The North Central Regional Sun Grant Center is located at 日本av视频 in Brookings. The Center consists of 10 states: Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, Nebraska, South Dakota, Wisconsin and Wyoming.
We are one of five regional Sun Grant Centers within the Sun Grant Initiative, which was authorized in the 2002, 2008, 2014 and 2018 Farm Bills. All regions are working together to further establish a bio-based economy through our national network of land-grant universities and federally-funded laboratories. The five Sun Grant Centers each use their unique regional resources to meet the common goal of developing bio-based alternatives and providing educational programs on America's energy demands while offering economic opportunities for rural areas.
The Sun Grant Initiative is a national network of partnered land-grant universities working to fully realize and advance a rural-centric bio-based economy. This network is organized into five biogeographical regions, each with a lead Sun Grant Center to facilitate the development of regional biomass-to-bioproducts research.
