The 77 United Soybean Board farmer leaders set priorities for 2024 program investments during the recent USB board meeting.
April Hemmes, a farmer from north central Iowa, serves as chair of the demand action team.
“This is the meeting where we put our Christmas list together. I don’t know of a lot of other commodity groups where the farmers get together and say this is what we want to focus on and then the projects are brought to us,” she says.
