GRHS 223 - Microgreen and Fodder Production


Credits: 2

Experience and instruction in controlled-environment production of microgreens and fodder for human and livestock nutrition. Students experiment with growing various seeds, using industry-standard methodology, to produce highly nutritious products while using very little water or fertilizers. Students gain experience in all stages of the growing process, from seed to post-harvest, learn to identify challenges such as mold, fungus, and poor seed quality, and design a growing plan for maximizing yields. In the hands-on portion of this class, students produce their own microgreen and fodder products.

Offered: Summer and Fall.
One lecture hour, two lab hours.
