Statewide Iowa — College football season opens in Iowa Saturday and buses carrying two Iowa teams will also carry new branding.
The Iowa Soybean Association and the Iowa Biodiesel Board are partnering with Windstar, the bus company that provides transportation for the Iowa Hawkeyes and Iowa State Cyclones. Iowa Biodiesel Board executive director Grant Kimberley says the buses run on biodiesel and it says so in big letters down the side.
He says the partnership and the rebranding of the buses is a great way to educate people about biodiesel.
The Hawkeye and Cyclone team buses have a broad reach, all the while advertising one of Iowa’s biggest biofuels.
Iowa’s farmers are expected to harvest more than 525-million bushels of soybeans this fall. Every bushel will enhance Iowa’s standing as the nation’s top producer of biodiesel.
