The Indiana Agricultural Leadership Institute (IALI) has received a $2,500 check from CoBank on behalf of Kevin Still, a director on the cooperative bank’s board. Still is also the CEO and treasurer of Co-Alliance LLP, a Danville-based farm supply, energy, and grain and swine marketing partnership of Midland Co-op, Inc., IMPACT Coop, Inc., Laporte County Co-op, Inc., and Frontier Co-op, Inc.
