Alum Jason Carr explains how this program is an opportunity to share your level of expertise with the 43,000+ soybean farmers across the state of Illinois and beyond.

Soy Envoys contribute actionable information, advice, and in-season updates via the ILSoyAdvisor blog to support Illinois soybean farmers in their goals of increasing yields and profits while minimizing environmental impact. The program runs from March to October.

Responsibilities will include blog writing, in-field video updates, and sharing actionable soybean insight on social media. Soy Envoys will receive a $2,000 stipend each for their participation and efforts – a new incentive of the program.

Participating in the Soy Envoy program will provide the opportunity to network, participate in professional development opportunities, earn continuing education credits, have first access to ISA funded research and industry resources, enhance your verbal and written communication skills and grow your online agronomic presence.
