Who is Hungry for Truth?
Hungry for Truth is an initiative that brings together farmers, food experts, and trusted resources to answer questions about agriculture and food production. Our goal is to provide transparent, science-based information that helps consumers make informed decisions about the food they eat.
Meet The South Dakota Soybean Checkoff Board
The volunteer farmer-directors of the United Soybean Board oversee national soy checkoff investments to maximize profit opportunities for all U.S. soybean farmers. The soybean checkoff is supported entirely by soybean farmers with individual contributions of 0.5 percent of the market price per bushel sold each season. The efforts of the checkoff are directed by the United Soybean Board, composed of volunteer farmer-leaders often nominated by their state-level checkoff organizations, called Qualified State Soybean Boards (QSSBs). The nominees are appointed to the board by the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture.
If you are interested in becoming a director on the United Soybean Board, please contact the South Dakota Soybean office at (605) 330-9942 for more information.
