WISHH thanks the United Soybean Board for its support of this webinar series to provide new insights to assist entrepreneurs in overcoming obstacles to supply chains in developing and emerging markets. The Mobilizing Entrepreneurs to Expand U.S. Soy Utilization in Developing and Emerging Markets initiative works to compress the time for a new U.S. soybean market to go from emerging market entry to basic market ready.

Each webinar will also feature a WISHH farmer leader. Gerry Hayden will describe how his Kentucky family farm has plans that help ensure high-quality U.S. soy is available for protein in feed and food. Roberta Simpson-Dolbeare will discuss how grain storage on her Illinois family farm contributes to safe supplies of soybeans for her own family as well as global customers. Jim Wilson will share how the management practices he uses on his Michigan farm support abundant and affordable supplies of U.S. soy.
