CIFT Ag Forum Addresses Soy-Based Product Development And Commercialization

BY JULIE CARLE 

Barry McGraw, founder and chief laboratory officer of Ohio-based Airable Research Lab, will be the guest speaker for the July CIFT Agricultural Forum.

He will speak about “Soy-based Product Development and Commercialization” during the presentation on July 20 from 8:30 to 9:30 a.m. The presentation will be available in person at the Northwest Ohio Cooperative Kitchen, 13737 Middleton Pike, Bowling Green, or via Zoom.

Airable Research Lab, based in Delaware, Ohio, and a business line of the Ohio Soybean Council, leverages decades of experience and knowledge in the soybean industry to create innovative and sustainable solutions in research and product development through bio-based chemistry. The lab partners with companies to explore ideas for using soybeans to upgrade a product or invent something entirely new.  

Their work features technologies in soy-based cationic surfactant, scale inhibitor and soy-based plasticizer and polyol. They also have developed Roof Maxx and DeWalt Bar & Cham Oil.

The Ohio Soybean Council, governed by a volunteer farmer board, directs the soybean promotion and research program with the goal to improve soybean profitability through farmer-contributed funds for research, development, marketing and education projects.
