While each budget cycle comes with its own set of unique circumstances, the Institute is appreciative of the hard work put forth by the House Agriculture Finance Committee chaired by Representative Rod Hamilton and the Senate Committee on Environment, Economic Development and Agriculture Budget Division and its chair Senator David Tomassoni.  We appreciate their willingness to listen to our stories of great outcomes from past investment in the entrepreneurs and small business owners who are constantly adding value to Minnesota's agriculture produce by creating new products and processes. 

Thank you also to the legislative members who sit on our Board of Directors: Senator Matt Schmit and Representative Deb Kiel. Your support and legislative influence is appreciated. 

 

And last, but not least, AURI would like to thank our clients and partners who took time from their busy schedules to help us tell our story, and who reminded our policy makers of the great service the Institute brings to Minnesota.

Our staff is engaged with clients and our labs are busy all because of the investment that Minnesotans are willing to make in agriculture...and for that we say "Thank You!"

The next Minnesota Renewable Energy Roundtable will be held on July 17, 2015 in Rochester. The event will focus on biomass education and its potential use as part of the Destination Medical Center project in Rochester.
