How are my soybean checkoff dollars being used to help find solutions to this problem?

0

State and national soybean associations funded by soybean checkoff dollars have been the leaders in preparing for soybean rust. They have funded research on rust movement and occurrence and research on soybean resistance and the screening of commercial soybean varieties. They have been at the forefront of preventing accidental introduction of rust into the U.S., promoting federal funding for research and encouraging the EPA and chemical companies to work on the availability of fungicides. Soybean checkoff dollars have funded much of the information on rust available to soybean growers.
