soybean research:<br />
built by and for missouri farmers<br />
Research has long been a key area for the Missouri<br />
Soybean Merchandising Council as the board of<br />
directors invests soy checkoff dollars. Today, projects<br />
supported by the soybean checkoff help farmers here in<br />
Missouri, and all around the country, improve yields and<br />
quality, as well as fight pests and weeds like never before.<br />
Research investments have historically been broad, ranging<br />
from biotechnology and best management practices to new<br />
uses for soybeans, as well as soybean meal and oil. Looking<br />
ahead, efforts to keep pace with the growth in demand will<br />
continue to grow in importance.<br />
In supporting research, the board of directors and staff<br />
are focused on providing information that is relevant<br />
and impactful, while also happening in a timely manner<br />
and with judicious use of the funds available. In fact, the<br />
mission is as follows:<br />
The Missouri Soybean Merchandising Council<br />
strategically invests Missouri farmers’ checkoff dollars<br />
to develop and evaluate practical and innovative<br />
research for the benefit of Missouri soybean producers<br />
and their end users.<br />
Soybean research funded by the soy checkoff in Missouri<br />
involves a number of partners, including the University of<br />
Missouri, other institutions and private entities. Current<br />
projects and researchers supported by checkoff funds<br />
distributed by the Missouri Soybean Merchandising<br />
Council are listed below according to their emphasis area.<br />
