An interactive map was also developed for online use. Science and technology are vital to the future of South Dakota’s economic health. South Dakota’s Vision 2020 Science and Technology plan provides our state with a roadmap for supporting and growing science and technology education and economic development that will create higher-paying jobs and high value exports to positively impact the quality of life for every South Dakotan. The South Dakota Vision 2020 Science and Technology plan was first created in 2010 at the request of the Governor. The plan is designed to be inclusive of citizens, industry, postsecondary education, K-12 education, economic development organizations and state government. The Science and Technology plan is having a positive effect on the state’s economy. For example, the state’s levels of academic science and engineering research and development (R&D), per $1,000 of Gross Domestic Product, more than quadrupled, outperforming national standards. This growth is a direct reflection of statewide investments towards research infrastructure, which has brought in new companies and increased job opportunities for South Dakotans. The continued support of the Vision 2020 Science and Technology plan by the education sector, private sector and state government will be a valuable driver to South Dakota’s future.

Our team works with a wide variety of clients that need to communicate complicated information in a manner that is easily understood and provides the answer to “why should I care?” From medical and social issues to government outreach and trade organizations, we understand how to provide salient information in a way that resonates with the intended audiences. 13 CEOLetter from the 2020Contributors In the words of Hellen Keller, “Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.” I think we can all agree that despite the highs and lows we’ve seen this year, 2020 has indeed been an adventure. Therefore, I am very pleased to share DLHS’s journey through this very challenging year with you, our partners in donation. Despite COVID-19 and six weeks of no elective surgeries, together we reached an amazing milestone of providing the gift of sight to 1082 individuals. Additionally, we saw an increase in both eye and tissue donations throughout our region. This would not have been possible without you: our partners, surgeons, dedicated staff and board of directors. Thank you all for your commitment to our mission of restoring sight and health. As we look towards the future, we are excited to navigate an ever-changing landscape by implementing virtual learning options, innovating additional patient-ready cornea transplant options, increasing recipient safety and expanding donation options. In 2021 DLSH will reach another milestone by providing the gifts of sight and health for 30 years. I hope you will join me as we celebrate this milestone by registering to become a donor and sharing your decision with your family.

These efforts help improve patient care, educate the public and raise awareness throughout our communities. Much of our outreach efforts is focused on education for the medical community and the general public. By sharing information and providing insights about cornea transplantation and tissue donation, we help ensure support that allows us to fulfill our mission “To help enable the restoration of the gifts of sight and health.” In 2019 our educational outreach positively impacted thousands within our local communities. Our programs included: • Service Groups – Our staff conducted informative presentations to over 50 organizations such as Lions Clubs International, Rotary Clubs and many others across South Dakota and North Dakota. These presentations build support for eye and tissue donations as well as encourage financial support that allows us to better serve our communities. • Driver Education Classes – This year we met with over 2218 students in driver education classes. We take these opportunities to explain why eye and tissue donation is important and the positive impact that these donations have on so many lives. Our hope is that every newly licensed driver “checks the box” and helps ensure we always have enough donations to provide the gift of sight and health for everyone in need in our communities and beyond. • Public Schools – It is never too early to learn about the importance of eye and tissue donation. This is why we take the time to speak to middle school and high school anatomy classes throughout our area. Often we bring appropriate samples and equipment to engage these students in learning more about what we do and the value of donation. • Physician Education – It is vital for our organization to have close ties to our local medical community. One way we do this is by meeting with surgeons to share the latest medical advancements in transplant procedures. We also take these opportunities to gain insights on the needs and challenges that will allow the doctors to better perform their jobs. • Medical Students/Emergency Service Personnel – Dakota Lions Sight & Health offers invaluable hands on experience for many in our local medical communities. Often our programs provide first responders and future physicians the best opportunities to practice the skills they’ll need in the future in the most realistic way possible. This hands-on, focused outreach effort truly makes a significant difference in so many lives within our communities. • Hospital Staffs – Nurses and hospital employees are truly on the frontline of patient care. We work closely with these dedicated professionals to ensure they completely understand the tissue donation process and how to help families through the difficult time of decision. We also educate them on the latest medical trends and technology as it relates to donation. Many of our classes allow attendees to qualify for Continuing Medical Education credits. • Funeral Directors – Like us, Funeral Directors are committed to supporting the families they serve. Our educational efforts in this field are designed to help our organization and theirs work closely to ensure donor families’ needs are always attended to throughout this difficult time. In addition to the many educational programs we support, Dakota Lions Sight & Health is also active in our outreach efforts in many other ways. A large part of our focus is on supporting donor families through bereavement support, providing information and hosting donor events. In 2019 we hosted three Donor Tribute Events in Fargo, ND, Sioux Falls, SD, and Rapid City, SD. These heartfelt gatherings honor the selfless gifts of hundreds of donors and their families. These luncheons also provide the opportunity, if desired, for donor families and recipients to meet in person. While much of our outreach efforts are focused in our local area, many of our staff members are also active at the national level through committee involvement and national conferences to ensure our industry remains progressive and best serves the needs of all involved. None of these important functions could be possible without our dedicated staff, generous volunteers and the support of our local communities. It truly takes a community to make possible the restoration of sight and health. Dakota Lions Sight & Health is a nonprofit eye bank. Insight produces 6- to 8-page annual reports with infographics and charts to illustrate the importance of the work they do. 443Dakotansmiraclelast year saw a FYE 2019ANNUAL REPORT CommunityNumbersOutreach2019By the Thanks to the support of so many we were able to see the incredibly positive impact the gift of sight & health has throughout all our communities. 162 Number of Hospital &Clinical Partners 66,000U.S.each year THERE ARE NEARLY cornea donors 95-99% Success rate of cornea transplants: Total fundraising:$84,276807 DonorsTOTAL $$ worldwide•COULD BENEFIT FROM•a cornea transplant MORE THAN12.7million people 882CORNEATRANSPLANTS NORTH DAKOTA SOUTH DAKOTA MINNESOTA NEBRASKA the Dakotas.

A large part of our focus is on supporting donor families through bereavement support, providing information and hosting donor events. In 2019 we hosted three Donor Tribute Events in Fargo, ND, Sioux Falls, SD, and Rapid City, SD. These heartfelt gatherings honor the selfless gifts of hundreds of donors and their families. These luncheons also provide the opportunity, if desired, for donor families and recipients to meet in person. While much of our outreach efforts are focused in our local area, many of our staff members are also active at the national level through committee involvement and national conferences to ensure our industry remains progressive and best serves the needs of all involved. None of these important functions could be possible without our dedicated staff, generous volunteers and the support of our local communities. It truly takes a community to make possible the restoration of sight and health. 14 1MISSOURI CORN | 2019 YEAR IN REVIEW Weather Challenges | Building Future Markets | Ethanol’s (R)evolution | Growing Future Leaders 2019 YEAR IN REVIEW BOZEMAN GRAPHIC DESIGN & COMMUNICATIONS SUPPORT Missouri Corn’s annual reports are designed to demonstrate the important contribution the corn industry makes throughout the state. 2 MISSOURI CORN | 2019 YEAR IN REVIEW 2019-2020 BOARD OF DIRECTORS Ryan Meyerkorth • Rock Port Dylan Rosier • Mound City USGC Middle East/Africa/South AsiaAdvisory Team Jay Schutte • Benton CityMCMC Vice Chairman NCGA Risk Management Advisory TeamUSGC Asia Advisory Team Brent Hoerr • PalmyraMCMC Treasurer USGC Innovation/Sustainability Advisory Team Jay Fischer • Jefferson CityMCGA Vice President USGC Ethanol Advisory Team Brian Lehman • VersaillesNCGA Member/Consumer Engagement Advisory Team Clint Stephens • Advance MCGA Secretary/Treasurer NCGA Production Technology Access Advisory Team Patrick Seyer • Oran Gary Porter • Mercer USGC Western Hemisphere Advisory Team National Corn Board Member Matt Lambert • Laclede MCMC Secretary NCGA Stewardship Action Team Kyle Kirby • Liberal Mike Moreland • HarrisonvilleMCGA President NCGA Market Development Advisory TeamNCGA Resolutions Committee Greg Schneider • WarrentonMCMC Chairman Mark Scott • WentzvilleUSGC Value-Added Advisory Team A 14-member board of grower-leaders elected by their peers direct both the Missouri Corn Growers Association and the Missouri Corn Merchandising Council, as well as provide representation on committees with national partners.

The program was designed to allow for the inclusion of advertisements to offset production cost. Friends, Growing up on a farm and ranch in rural Hamlin County, agriculture helped me develop a strong foundation built on the values of hard work and self-reliance. In agriculture, we have pride and passion for our work. It is not just a job, it’s our way of life. Agriculture is the foundation of South Dakota’s economy and our number one industry. As governor, I’m committed to using my real-life experience as a producer to advance ag in our state. We must be proactive in developing our state’s agriculture economy and giving more young people the opportunity to thrive as farmers and ranchers in South Dakota – they are the leaders of tomorrow. This year’s Ag Summit is focused on the ways South Dakota agriculture continues to grow and evolve and the outside factors that help and hinder those advancements. This week, you will hear updates on federal and state activities that impact our agriculture industry and communities. We will highlight ways we can interact with folks and educate consumers about what we do. I am particularly excited for our conversation with four young South Dakota agriculturists about the future of ag in our state. As ag leaders, thank you for your ongoing commitment to advancing our state’s number one industry. I hope you enjoy your time at this year’s Summit and find the information useful. Together, we can make sure South Dakota’s agriculture industry continues to thrive – for the next generation and beyond.
