The Wisconsin Soybean Marketing Board Soybean farmers working together for a promising future. By you. For you. The Wisconsin soybean checkoff is working every day to build a better future for soybean farmers across the state. The Wisconsin Soybean Marketing Board (WSMB) recently celebrated 20 years of building demand, creating new uses and focusing on disease research for Wisconsin soybeans. Established in 1983 as part of a Wisconsin-mandated checkoff, the WSMB works everyday to maximize the profitability of Wisconsin soybean producers. The Board is committed to statewide education and outreach programs to inform consumers about the benefits of soy. The mission of the Wisconsin Soybean Marketing Board is to maximize the profitability of Wisconsin's soybean producers by investing Wisconsin's soybean checkoff funds in targeted domestic and international research, promotion and communication initiatives. The United Soybean Board, the organization administering the national checkoff program, serves the national and global markets, while the Wisconsin Soybean Marketing Board directs statewide, national and international projects as part of the Soybean Promotion and Research Checkoff program.
