Apply Now for a Conservation Legacy Award

Jun 26, 2014

Tell the story of how conservation is a part of your farm operation and you could be one of the next regional winners of a Conservation Legacy Award. The awards recognize U.S. soybean farmers who distinguish themselves through outstanding environmental and conservation practices while farming profitably.

Entries are judged on soil management, water management, input management, farmstead protection and conservation and environmental management.

Brief videos featuring the conservation practices of winners from the last couple of years can be seen by clicking here.

All U.S. soybean farmers are eligible to submit an application for the Conservation Legacy Awards. Three regional winners will receive a trip for two to the 2015 Commodity Classic in Phoenix, Arizona. In addition, the regional winners will be featured in video stories and a special insert in Corn & Soybean Digest. A National Conservation Legacy Award winner will be chosen from the three regional winners.

The Conservation Legacy Awards program is sponsored by the American Soybean Association, BASF, Monsanto, the United Soybean Board/soybean checkoff and Corn & Soybean Digest.

Applications are due no later than Aug. 4, 2014 and must be submitted online. Get more information and access the online application when you click here.
