“We are excited to provide an opportunity for farmers paying into the soybean checkoff program to see funded research during the growing season,” says Maryland Soybean Board (MSB) Chair Belinda Burrier. “Research funding provided by MSB aims to increase the profitability and sustainability of soybean growers across the state.”
The field day will include nutrient management, pesticide applicator, and certified crop adviser (CCA) credits, as well as offer a snakehead fish fry and barbeque dinner to attendees. Preregistration is encouraged. Find the full agenda, available credits, and registration by visiting https://msbfieldday2021.eventbrite.com.
“We hope to see you there!” remarks Burrier.
About Maryland Soybean Board: The Maryland Soybean Board is funded by the national soybean checkoff program, which assesses one-half of one percent of the net market value of soybeans at the first point of sale. The board consists of ten volunteer farmer-directors and directs funds for research, marketing and education programs to benefit the Maryland soybean industry.
