National Bio and Agro Defense fits Wisconsin
Abstract:
Early in 2007, Wisconsin will learn whether it's on the short list for another major federal project: the National Bio and Agro Defense Facility. Like the wildlife and forest products labs, this center would be a near-perfect match with the state's tradition of natural resources stewardship, agriculture, and life sciences research.
