The South Dakota Soybean Research and Promotion Council invites South Dakota soybean farmers to participate in the checkoff’s See For Yourself program.

The See For Yourself program was designed to give South Dakota soybean farmers a unique, hands-on opportunity to learn about their customers beyond the elevator and the soybean checkoff’s role in marketing South Dakota and U.S. soy to those customers. Farmers selected to take part in the program will attend checkoff-sponsored activities to gain a better understanding of how their checkoff dollars are being invested to build demand domestically and internationally.

SEE FOR YOURSELF 2024

The 2024 tour will take place in the Pacific Northwest on July 8-11. Program highlights include:

    • Blue Water Shipping
    • EGT Terminal
    • Biodiesel & Renewable Diesel
    • Temco Terminal
    • Union Pacific Rail Yard & Container Yard


The South Dakota Soybean Research and Promotion Council is committed to increasing the profitability of your soybeans and wants to give you the opportunity to gain a better understanding of your commodity’s supply chain and checkoff activities.
