            Soybean Bag Toss
Children from local schools and summer programs have come to the “Farmers on the Green” event, to participate in STEM soy and agriculture-based learning activates and lunch at the Boys and Girls Club of Harlem in New York, NY, on July 29, 2021. The activities also include experiments that demonstrate water retention of soil with various organic content, soybean bag toss, soybean spoon carry around a soy information placard, soy product quiz, talk with New York FFA officers about their interests and activities in agriculture. 

Soy-biobased grass manufacturer, SYNLawn, partnered with United Soybean Board, New York Corn and Soybean Growers and Indiana Soybean Alliance. In honor of this special event, SYNLawn installed a soy biobased synthetic grass at the club, where all of the learning stations are set-up. The soy biobased synthetic grass covers a hard surface that became too hot to play on, during high summer heat conditions. The new covering is cooler and provides a softer low maintenance surface. 

During the event, United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Rural Development (RD) Deputy Under Secretary Justin Maxson, on the 10th anniversary of the creation of the USDA’s Certified Biobased Product Label, unveiled an Economic Impact Analysis of the U.S. Biobased Products Industry. The report demonstrates that the biobased industry is a substantial generator of economic activity and jobs, and that it has a significant positive impact on the environment.
