Nebraska Soybean Board

Nebraska Soybean Board Our Mission: Growing value for Nebraska farmers by maximizing their checkoff investments. Department of Agriculture, U.S.

Nine board members from across the state make up the Nebraska Soybean Board. Board members listen to reports of checkoff-funded research, marketing efforts, and promotional programs, and make future funding decisions. On a broader level, the soy checkoff helps facilitate market growth and create new markets for soybeans through marketing, research and commercialization programs. According to a 201

9 return-on-investment (ROI) study, which is required by the U.S. soybean farmers received $12.34 in added value for every dollar they invested in the soy checkoff. The federal law that created the soy checkoff requires that a return on investment study be conducted every five years.

There’s more behind a milk mustache than you might think. 🥛🐄

Did you know U.S. dairy cattle used about 6 million metric tons of soybean meal during the 2024/2025 marketing year?

Soybean meal brings valuable protein to the feed bunk, helping support the dairy cows behind the milk, cheese and ice cream we all know and love. Happy National Dairy Month!

Katherine Drake Stowe of the United Soybean Board shares how Nebraska’s work in areas like soybean gall midge and seed composition is helping answer questions, create new opportunities and move the entire soybean industry forward.

At the center of it all is a simple expectation: the work has to lead back to the farm.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and today is Mental Health Awareness in Agriculture Day. It’s a good time to remind farmers and rural communities that they are not alone.
