Pollinatarium

The Pollinatarium (University of Illinois Pollinatarium or UI Pollinatarium) is the first freestanding science center in the United States dedicated to increasing public awareness and appreciation of pollination as both a remarkable ecological partnership and a crucial ecosystem service. The building, originally established as the campus's first Bee Research Facility (or "bee lab" for short), was repurposed in 2009 to become the University of Illinois Pollinatarium, after a new Bee Research Facility was constructed. The initial project of Pollinatarium received significant financial support from Peter Fox and his family, who are acknowledged with a commemorative plaque within the Pollinatarium. The center was reconfigured to focus on public outreach and education related to pollinators. Each year, the University of Illinois Pollinatarium hosts a variety of educational programs and events that attract a wide range of visitors, including preschoolers, undergraduates, Osher Lifelong Learners, community groups, beekeepers, agritourists, and casual visitors to the campus. Notable programs include visits from Orchard Downs preschoolers who plant flowers, Girls Explore Biology during National Pollinator Week, and educational events like the Summer Academies for 4-H students focused on beekeeping. The Pollinatarium also serves over 900 second-grade students from Champaign Unit 4 and engages local beekeepers through seasonal meetings with the Central Eastern Illinois Beekeepers Association (CEIBA). Through these efforts, the Pollinatarium raises awareness about the vital role of bees and pollination, contributing to the University of Illinois' certification as a Bee Campus. The center's outreach initiatives foster a deeper understanding of the importance of pollinators in maintaining biodiversity and supporting global food production. It is also a member of the Champaign County Museums Network.

Association of American Feed Control Officials

The Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO) is a non-profit organization which sets standards for the quality and safety of animal feed (fodder) and pet food in the United States. AAFCO is a voluntary organization consisting largely of state officials who have responsibility for enforcing their state's laws and regulations concerning the safety of animal feeds. AAFCO also establishes standard ingredient definitions and nutritional requirements for animal feed/pet food. Most states have adopted the AAFCO models or use them in the regulation of animal feed/pet food. AAFCO meets twice yearly, typically in January and August, so that committees and the board of directors can conduct the organization's business of assessing the need for changes to the Model Bill, model regulations, ingredient definitions, etc. Once per year, the latest version of all AAFCO-approved documents is printed in the organization's Official Publication.Its voting members are representatives from each state in the United States, Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, Canada, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Additionally, there are non-voting advisors on each AAFCO committee who are mainly from industry, such as the National Grain and Feed Association, Pet Food Institute, and American Feed Industry Association. AAFCO meets twice per year, in January and August, to conduct its business.Unlike the FDA, AAFCO has no regulatory authority. However, AAFCO members have enforcement authority in their respective state or federal agencies. The AAFCO model regulations on feed ingredients have been adopted by many states; other states have adopted similar regulations. In 2007, the Center for Veterinary Medicine at the FDA formalized its relationship with AAFCO in identifying feed ingredients.
