Maximize Your Profits – Register for Soybean Marketing and Production College

May 30, 2013

The weather may be creating havoc for your growing season, but don’t let it affect you registering for the ASA Soybean Marketing and Production College, July 29-31, in St. Paul, Minn.

The ASA Soybean Marketing and Production College will help you "Maximize Your On-Farm Profits" through expert analysis and information about today’s precision management techniques, the latest on herbicide and weed management, and how you can capitalize on global sustainability requirements.

Headlining the Marketing and Production College will be Dr. Matt Roberts, an expert in commodity markets, ag risk management, energy issues and biofuels. Roberts will review the current supply and demand situation for grains and oilseeds in the U.S. and the world. He will discuss what this means for prices and how growers can best take advantage of these trends in their own marketing decisions.

Prominent ag TV personality John Phipps will be the closing keynote speaker. Phipps will speak about the financial collapse and how it has altered our decision making process. He will share strategies to not only endure, but prosper from an unpredictable future in agriculture by understanding which risks are worth worrying about.

The Soybean Marketing and Production College will also feature three in-depth breakout education sessions for attendees:

  • Global Sustainability Requirements to Meet World Soybean Demand
  • Weed and Herbicide Resistance Management/Best Management Practices – presented by Bayer CropScience
  • Utilizing Precision Agriculture to Maximize Yields – presented by AGCO Corporation

In addition there will be a special presentation for all attendees on succession planning.
