AgCentric/Central Lakes College has secured a $43,037 grant for a collaborative program with the Ag Innovation Campus (AIC) and the Minnesota Farmer’s Union. The initiative aims to establish a soybean crush facility employee training program at AIC in Crookston.

This program, mandatory for AIC employees, will also be open to other crush facilities seeking to enhance their workforce skills to meet the evolving needs of agriculture specialty production and value-added processing.

AgCentric, recognized as a Minnesota State Center of Excellence in Agriculture, spearheads this partnership to drive innovation and workforce development in the agricultural sector.
