🐖 A few weeks ago, NCAI had a fantastic visit to Keystone Cooperative’s Legacy Feed Facility! From harvest to processing to loading, we followed the full feed-production journey and got an inside look at Keystone’s four divisions—grain, swine & animal nutrition, energy, and agronomy. Many thanks to Sarah Morehouse, Kaitlyn Lacey, and C**t Rudolph for an engaging and informative tour! 🌾

🌽 Last week we had the chance to visit our partners at their Mt. Summit Agronomy Facility! We were grateful to have Caleb Smith, Keystone’s Sustainability Business Development Lead and proud NCHS alum, as our tour guide.

Students got a front row seat to see Keystone’s new dry fertilizer system, toured the liquid management facility, and learned all about N-P-K numbers and how different fertilizers are imported from around the world or are extracted right here in North America!

Stay tuned for updates on our trip to Keystone’s Legacy Feed Facility tomorrow! 🚜
