Project Overview:

Ardent Mills recently expanded the footprint of its Ardent Mills Innovation Center (AMIC) network with a location in Pullman, Washington.

To support our alternative grains center of excellence, Emerging Nutrition, our team at AMIC Pullman is comprehensively characterizing priority Emerging Nutrition crops in 2025. The proposed intern project will aim to characterize the functionality of these priority crops at AMIC Pullman.
