Grades 4-8. Course written by Kyle Lang. What could a farmer in Ohio possibly have to do with improving homeland security, bringing jobs back to rural America, and dramatically curbing global warming? By using agricultural products like soybeans and corn in place of oil, our global economy is gradually becoming more sustainable. Farmers grow the building blocks of the bioproducts you use everyday. Producing and using these bioproducts over their traditional, oil-based counterparts is how our farmers play such an important role. In this course you’ll learn: What exactly is a bioproduct? How do they improve my life and the environment or why should I use them? What bioproducts are available today? How do I get involved in the bioproducts industry?
