Agriculture is not only fundamental but is also one of the most resilient industries. Every year without fail, growers must clear a myriad of hurdles, ranging from preparing fields, planting, harvesting, shipping, and navigating through market swings.A consistently important factor for successful farming is agricultural research, and a new project should greatly help this area.With its $500,000 contribution, Redox Bio-Nutrients is among those providing substantial support to the University of Idaho’s Center for Agriculture, Food and the Environment (CAFE).“Agriculture is at a transformative state of change right now,” said Darin Moon, CEO of Redox Bio-Nutrients. “We have to move forward through sound science that allows us to positively adapt and change. We couldn’t pass up this opportunity to contribute in a significant way, because it’s a part of who we are.”When completed, Idaho CAFE will be the nation’s largest research dairy and will have many other components to foster scientific research, agricultural sustainability and consumer education. Plans call to begin milking cows in 2024.Idaho CAFE not only will help growers and consumers, it is also a testament to the strength and unity of the agricultural industry.“Collectively, we can move mountains” said Michael Parrella, Dean of the University of Idaho’s College of Agricultural and Life Sciences. “From the Idaho Legislature to Redox and others in agriculture, it truly is a remarkable partnership that will pay widespread dividends.”Link: https://www.uidaho.edu/research/entities/cafe
