The challenge is an effort to recognize state associations with the top overall growth and top percentage growth for a quarter. The first quarterly challenge started April 1 and concluded on June 30.

MSGA was the top overall state in membership growth by adding 239 members between April and June. SCCSA was the top overall state in percentage growth with a 36 percent increase in membership during the same quarter.

“ASA congratulates Minnesota and South Carolina for their efforts to grow their state logo-msgaand ASA membership,” said Bob Worth, ASA Membership and Corporate Relations Chairman. “ASA’s success is based on the strong efforts of our recruiters and state associations to tell our story about how ASA is helping to increase soybean producers’ profitability.”

The State Quarterly Membership Challenge continues with the current quarter of July 1 through September 30. The winning state associations each receive $500 to use for their state association activities.
