This class seeks to help students better understand the importance of soybeans 鈥 domestically and globally 鈥 and the complexities and opportunities for soybean use. Technological advancements, low carbon solutions, and policy are combining to make the soybean supply chain extra exciting and dynamic!</p> <p>This domestic study trip will follow soybeans as they travel through the supply chain, starting from the farmgate, through points of value-added processing, and to export terminals. This will include seeing a local cooperative 鈥渇arm gate鈥, train loading facilities, soybean crush plants, a feed mill (soybean meal), a renewable diesel refinery, a biodiesel plant, and export terminals where ships are loaded for Asian destinations. The trip will start in Iowa, move through Minnesota, and end at shipping ports near Portland, OR (Kalama, WA and Grays Harbor, WA).</p> <p><em>This program was offered for the first time in fall 2023.&nbsp;</em></p> </div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-departure-date field-type-datetime field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><span class="date-display-range"><span class="date-display-start" property="dc:date" datatype="xsd:dateTime" content="2023-12-13T00:00:00-06:00">Wednesday, December 13, 2023</span> to <span class="date-display-end" property="dc:date" datatype="xsd:dateTime" content="2023-12-19T00:00:00-06:00">Tuesday, December 19, 2023</span></span></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-type-of-travel field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-inline clearfix"><div class="field-label">Type of Travel:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even">Travel Course</div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-application-deadline field-type-datetime field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Application Deadline:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><span property="dc:date" datatype="xsd:dateTime" content="2023-10-25T00:00:00-05:00" class="date-display-single">Wednesday, October 25, 2023</span></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-semester field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-inline clearfix"><div class="field-label">Semester:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even">Fall</div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-application-link field-type-link-field field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><a href="https://isuabroad.iastate.edu/index.cfm?FuseAction=Programs.ViewProgramAngular&amp;id=14015">More Details Here</a></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-year field-type-datetime field-label-inline clearfix"><div class="field-label">Year:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><span property="dc:date" datatype="xsd:dateTime" content="2023-01-01T00:00:00-06:00" class="date-display-single">2023</span></div></div></div> Thu, 20 Oct 2022 19:05:04 +0000 nicolerh 1244 at
