These sessions bring local soybean knowledge from Certified Crop Advisers (CCAs), agronomists, industry experts, and farmers. Participants will receive local agronomic insight and the tools they need to improve profitability and achieve high yields. Association updates will also be provided from the ISA Agronomy Team.
