The Utilization Center for Agricultural Products (UCAP) was established at Iowa State University to expand use of agricultural commodities and byproducts by developing value-added products for specific markets, improving processes and product quality, and transferring information and technology to industry and policy makers to strengthen the agricultural economy. As a result of the reallocation of resources within the ISU College of Agriculture in 2001, the functions of UCAP have been distributed among appropriate academic departments and centers.
