Grant takes MTI program statewide

Mitchell Technical Institute has garnered a $147,542 federal grant to help it expand its Farm/Ranch Business Management Program statewide.
The grant will help the newly renamed South Dakota Center for Farm/Ranch Management hire an instructor in Mitchell to replace Calvin Pietz, who is retiring next June, and employ a new one in northeast South Dakota, program instructor Roger DeRouchey said. The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Institute of Food and Agriculture provided the grant.
