The American Soybean Association (ASA) is teaming up with farmer Dennis Bogaards next week for a live view of harvest from his Pella, Iowa farm.

Periscope is a mobile app that allows you to live video chat and answer questions with people around the world. Dennis goes live from soybean harvest at Bogaards Farm, Inc. on Wednesday, Oct. 5 at 1 p.m. CST. (Date and time are weather permitting—if it rains, we’ll reschedule)! Check back with ASA on Twitter and Facebook next week for  more information.

See Dennis give a tour of harvest on his farm and answer your questions about modern agriculture by following ASA on Twitter at @ASA_Soybeans and Dennis on Periscope, via the mobile app or Twitter at @dbogfarm. If you have questions you’d like to send in ahead of time, email ASA Communications Manager Jordan Bright at jbright@soy.org.

Dennis’ family farm consists of 450 acres of soybeans and 550 acres of other crops. They also sell ag technology equipment. Dennis has a degree in mechanics and is passionate about telling the story of ag and conveying positive messages about genetically modified srganisms (GMOs). He is a former ASA Director. Dennis uses social media often, both personally and professionally. You can also find him on, the “Flying the Farm” Facebook page or YouTube.
