Top Things for Farmers to Know About Checkoff Dollars Invested in Research

When high-yielding harvests are not enough to secure success for today’s soybean producers, checkoff dollars help ensure a strong, profitable by investing in research projects. The Arkansas Soybean Promotion Board funds research focused on protecting yield and profitability for soybean farmers throughout the state.

  • Irrigation Management

One of Our Biggest Success Stories as a Result of Research

Irrigation management efforts supported by the Arkansas Soybean Board allow farmers to attend irrigation school to learn the basics of irrigation, soil water holding capacity and how sensors work. The Irrigation Yield Contest allows them to test their knowledge and get feedback on water use efficiency. Development of an app that works with soil moisture sensors provides real-time knowledge to help Arkansas farmers make sound irrigation decisions. Combined, these efforts reduce inputs and runoff, while improving the use of water and soybean profitability.
