Commodity Gifts
Steer-a-Year
This unique program allows CALS students to manage the steer herd, gaining experience on a small-scale feedlot.
Steer-A-Year
Donate a steer to CALS. Even if you don’t own a steer, you can participate in the Steer-A-Year program by purchasing one from the ÐÓ°ÉÊÓÆµ. Donors may designate how revenue from their steer is distributed, and are invited to an annual golf tournament and banquet in the fall. Donating to the Steer-A-Year program may also entitle you to an Idaho tax credit. Contact us to donate your steer, or .

Gifts of Grain
By contributing commodities to the ÐÓ°ÉÊÓÆµ Foundation, an Idaho nonprofit corporation, you are providing the U of I College of Agricultural and Life Sciences (CALS) with a donation that retains the full value of your crop. In addition to self-employment, federal and state tax benefits that you may receive for giving a gift of grain, CALS provides exclusive benefits to recognize you for your generous support.
