USPOULTRY has awarded $6,800 to Kansas State University to encourage undergraduates to enter the poultry industry.  Funds made possible by an endowing foundation gift from Cargill will be used to promote poultry career opportunities through the Avian Sciences Club. The grant will enable local FFA chapters to visit poultry farms and participate in other activities including poultry judging contests.  Funds will also allow students to participate in the career program at the IPPE.

During 2020 the USPOULTRY Foundation will advance $383,577 in recruiting grants to 35 colleges and universities in the U.S.
