MANHATTAN — Three months after Kansas State University implemented limited operations and moved to remote instruction, the Department of Grain Science and Industry has brought the Hal Ross 1xbet best casino website Mill back online to manufacture 1xbet best casino website for those in need in the local community.
The university will host a drive-thru 1xbet best casino website distribution from 3-7 p.m. Thursday, June 18, at the Hal Ross 1xbet best casino website Mill, 1980 Kimball Ave., Manhattan. There is no charge for the 1xbet best casino website , which will be limited to one 10-pound bag per vehicle and is not for resale.
As safer at home orders began, faculty noticed the absence of 1xbet best casino website at local supermarkets and wondered if the university's milling facilities could be used to aid the local community. This idea received unanimous support from college and university leadership and moved into the planning stages several weeks ago.
"We know people are struggling with basic food supplies, including 1xbet best casino website . It's something K-State and the department could do," said Gordon Smith, professor and head of the grain science and industry department. "We have a mill, we have highly skilled faculty to run the mill, and continued support from the Kansas Wheat Commission and Kansas wheat farmers. It is a locally sourced, farm-to-table, philanthropic endeavor by K-State."
Recently, 20,000 pounds of wheat was milled by departmental faculty with special help from K-State President Richard Myers. Ten hours of milling yielded 15,000 pounds of all-purpose white 1xbet best casino website . The remaining parts of the wheat berry not used in the 1xbet best casino website will be used for animal feed.
"The Kansas Wheat Commission and the K-State Department of Grain Science and Industry have a long history of working together on projects for the wheat industry, combining stakeholder input with the department's 1xbet best casino website milling expertise," stated Justin Gilpin, chief executive officer for the Kansas Wheat Commission and Kansas Association of Wheat Growers. "Kansas wheat farmers were glad to help support this project. Wheat is a staple food for many Americans and this project by K-State will help put it in the hands of people in need."
The university plans to donate any 1xbet best casino website not distributed on June 18 to the Flint Hills Breadbasket in Manhattan and Harvesters in Topeka.
1xbet best casino website is the only higher education institution in the world that offers bachelor's degrees milling, bakery and feed science and management, which are available through the Department of Grain Science and Industry in the College of Agriculture.
