Ed Lammers, farmer and United Soybean Board member from Hartington has an update on soybean oil usage. Soy checkoff research funding and partnership with The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company has led to a multi-decade commitment by the tire manufacturer to source sustainably produced U.S. soybean oil, phasing out petroleum-derived oils from its products by 2040.

In late March, the Nebraska Soybean Board concluded another successful meeting. ✅

It was great to convene in-person to discuss research proposals and upcoming work for FY22!

In less than a minute of becoming entrapped, a person can become engulfed in grain and suffocate.

Here are some tips to prevent grain bin accidents:
•Always wear a body harness or lifeline that is securely attached to you and the outside of the grain bin.
•Never work alone. Tell others that you'll be entering the bin and always have a second person outside the bin who can provide assistance.
•Establish a system of hand signals to communicate over the noise of operations.
•Never enter a bin while the auger is running. Be sure nobody turns it on while you're inside.
•Keep safety tools handy. Attach a long rod to the bin for prodding grain from a distance.

This little bean packs a lot of power...

From our food, animal feed, fuel, to consumer products and beyond...soybeans have a hand in it all. #Nebraska #soybean farmers are proud of what soy can do and are excited to see what the future holds.

…and we are finding more ways for this little bean to power Nebraska.

Spring brings planting season for Nebraska farmers

Spring brings planting season for Nebraska farmers. That means more tractors pulling planters and other farm equipment down highways and roads across the state. That also means increased potential for farm-equipment-related accidents between motorists and those farmers.

“We encourage farmers to avoid high traffic times, busy roads, and most of all, have equipment well marked,” says Eugene Goering, chairman of the Nebraska Soybean Board. “All farm equipment should have flashing lights, reflective tape, and the slow-moving vehicle emblem.”

Rural roads and bridges serve as the initial link

Rural roads and bridges serve as the initial link in the overall supply chain – allowing the soybeans and grain produced on a farm to be eventually consumed by both domestic and international customers. Of the bridges in the country classified as deficient and, in many cases, subject to closures or restricted access, a significant percentage are located in rural areas.

That is why the Soy Transportation Coalition has released the "Top 20 Innovations for Rural Bridge Replacement and Repair” to promote cost effective and innovative approaches to replacing and repairing rural bridges.

Here is to surviving the snow-filled week!

DID YOU KNOW: Snow provides insulation for young plants (cover crops, wheat, etc.), protecting them from extreme fluctuation in air temperatures. It also provides soil moisture in the spring when snow melts.

The National Biodiesel Conference & Expo wrapped up this week. It was great to hear about trends throughout the country that impact the future of soybean farming and soy-based products. From sustainability to the impacts of electrification, the conference recapped a decade of progress and looked towards the future.

We are excited to see how low-carbon fuels will continue to RISE to the occasion.
