Our Power, Our Planet: Circularity in the Corn Belt 🌽🚜 What if the byproducts of biotech could help nourish the environment? In Cedar Rapids, Iowa, we’re putting that into practice by creating circular linkages between our facility and local farms. We’re currently upcycling 2.8 million gallons of liquid biomass every month to help farmers replenish their soil, keeping 350 tons of "cake shavings" out of local landfills. By leveraging agricultural byproducts to fuel our fermentation and partnering with the community to restore the local tree canopy, we are taking the deliberate steps to support more sustainable local practices. #DoMoreGood #WeAreIFF #CircularEconomy #Upcycling #ZeroWaste #EarthMonth2026
