Panel discussion to follow farmland documentary

Kyndal Reimer

The Iowa State Corn Growers Association and the ISU Student Federation for Agriculture will host a preview of the film “Farmland” at 6 p.m. April 23 in the Scheman Building.

“Farmland” is a documentary about 20 year olds taking on the responsibility of owning their own farming business. The film provides the audience with an intimate sneak peek at the lives of a variety of different types of farmers and ranchers.

Following the film, there will be a panel discussion of themes in the movie. The panel, like the movie, will contain different type of farmers ranging from corn producers to cattle ranchers.

The Iowa State Corn Growers Association and the ISU Student Federation for Agriculture have been working hard to make the night fun and family friendly. Not only is the event free admission, but there will also be free popcorn provided as well as photo ops in the lobby.
