Post-Harvest Management & Feed Technology

Welcome to the Iowa State University - Advanced Grain Elevator Operations Management (AGEOM) – On-Site Course. The course was developed by Iowa State University and grain industry experts and is offered in partnership with the Agribusiness Association of Iowa.
 
This course is designed to be hands-on and in-person, however we have found that offering materials online can really help participants. It is a simple way for you to download course materials to your personal or company computers for review and future reference. We have posted the lessons in a larger format (two slides per page instead of six slides per page in the course handbook),and will also be posting the exercise solution keys that we will go through together in class.
