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

Research information helps soybean growers maximize productivity and profitability through smart production choices and efficient use of resources. Another initiative is to provide research-based educational opportunities to producers that are timely, unbiased and aid in farm management decision making.

One of Our Biggest Success Stories as a Result of Research

Nebraska’s soybean breeding program is well-established and extensive. Over the last decade more than $7.5 million has been invested in soybean breeding and genetics from the state’s checkoff funding alone. Seed scientists are devoting their time and knowledge to increase soybean varieties and improve their immunity and tolerance to chemicals, drought, pests and more.
