Make it a Priority Now – Tell Your Conservation Story

Mar 26, 2013

Conservation Legacy Awards logoThis is the perfect time to take stock of your farm conservation practices and submit an entry in the Conservation Legacy Awards program, presented by ASA. This program is open to all U.S. soybean farmers.

Join soybean farmers like Gail Fuller of Emporia, Kan., Jeremy Jack of Belzoni, Miss., and Roger Wenning of Greensburg, Ind., who each won 2013 Conservation Legacy Awards.

Take a little time now to tell the story of conservation practices on your farm and you could be one of the next regional Conservation Legacy winners. Entries will be judged in five areas: soil management, water management, input management, farmstead protection, and conservation and environmental management.

Winners from three regions will receive an expense-paid trip for two to the next Commodity Classic, February 27–March 1, 2014, in San Antonio. Regional winners will be featured in video stories and a special insert in Corn & Soybean Digest. A national winner will be chosen from the regional winners.

Submissions are due by Aug. 5, but don’t wait. Make it a priority to tell your conservation story now. A brochure and online application are available at: https://soygrowers.com/award-programs/conservation-legacy/.

The 13th annual Conservation Legacy Awards program is sponsored by ASA, BASF, Monsanto, the United Soybean Board and Corn & Soybean Digest.
