We thank our funders for their continuing support

Thank you for your support! We couldn't do our work without a cadre of supportive people and institutions too numerous to name. 

We currently are supported by grants from the following institutions: USDA National Institute for Food and Agriculture (AFRI and McIntire-Stennis programs), Bia-Echo Foundation, Walton Family Foundation, The McKnight Foundation, Iowa Nutrient Research Center, and Iowa Economic Development Authority. Dr. Schulte Moore is also supported through a fellowship from the MacArthur Foundation and funding from the Dean of the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences at Iowa State University.

We previously received funding from the USDA Farm Service Agency, USDA Forest Service, Foundation for Food and Agriculture Research (with matching funds from Iowa State University, Bayer Crop Science, Syngenta, DuPont-Pioneer, and Roeslein Alternative Energy), Iowa State University (Office of the Vice President for Research, College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, Department of Natural Resource Ecology and Management), Leopold Center for Sustainable Agriculture, Iowa State University Department of Agronomy, USDA Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education Initiative, National Science Foundation, 11th Hour Project, and CropLife Foundation, US Fish and Wildlife Service, The Nature Conservancy, Iowa Soybean Association, Natural Resources Defense Council, Iowa Agriculture Water Alliance, Renewable Energy Group, Iowa Department of Natural Resources, Iowa Native Plant Society, and Iowa Ornithological Union.

The funds provided by these organizations pays for student and staff time, data collection costs, and allows us to disseminate our work through presentations, field days, workshops, and publications. We are so thankful for their support of science and learning!
