U.S. Soy Export Promoter @USSEC with 40+ years in the global food + ag sector. Glass half full person who loves quality time with family. Tweets are mine.
@USDAForeignAg@POTUS Thanks U/S Lindberg for all the support of US Ag and US Soy. I look forward to being in the Philippines as part of the USDA ATM promoting US Ag products/meeting with important Customers of the US Soy Industry. Thanks to Deputy U/S Bekkering for leading Team US Ag in the PI.
On behalf of @USSEC, thanks to @ASA_Soybeans Action Partnership for their ongoing collaboration!
Together, we’re identifying industry challenges and developing action plans to address them, all guided by one principle: Supporting #USSoy farmers.
Thanks to our USSEC team!
Knowledge is power, and knowing more about different soy #animalfeed products can have a huge economic impact over the course of a year. You can expect to hear much more about this from @USSEC. Please reach out to a USSEC Team Member to learn more.
For the first time, #aquaculture accounts for more fish production than fishing. #USSoy is a key part of balancing a more resilient #foodsecurity equation by being a nutritious, versatile, and sustainable ingredient in aquaculture feed.

At @USSEC, we are always thinking about the future of #soybeans and what they mean for #foodsecurity. So @NatGeo's look at the long history of what soy has meant to humanity is such an awe-inspiring reminder that we’re continuing the work of millennia.

New research on #aquaculture operations indicates wastewater from soybean processing for milk and meat alternatives could be useful in feed! The need for more sustainable protein is growing and this could be a novel solution. From @AnthropoceneMag:

This past weekend, a new documentary called GroundBreaking on @AENetworks examines the role #USSoy plays in our lives, and how the industry is driving the innovation that will help us meet the challenges of the future. To learn more, visit https://t.co/TggRyJvtEF.
#Aquaculture feed advancements are key if we want this form of cultivation to balance the food stability challenges of the future! One promising ingredient: Soybeans!
Wondering which novel protein ingredients will make waves in the aquafeed market within the next 5 years? The team at @hatchblue1 has pinpointed promising candidates for inclusion in salmon, shrimp, and tilapia diets. https://t.co/clLnN68MR6
Last month, USSEC’s global events focused on animal #feed and #aquaculture! USSEC was active at the China Animal Husbandry Expo, the 10th annual Feed Formulation Workshop in Singapore, and AquaCon Invest in Dubai! #USSoy is a valuable part of feed and sustainably farmed fish!
Keeping tabs on the latest data is key to understanding the global economy. Last week, the @USDA released the #WASDE report and I had the opportunity to speak with Virginia Tech’s Jason Grant about what’s inside. Sign up for future updates.

Sharing knowledge is one of @USSEC’s key missions. The new Soybean Value Calculator allows our customers to plan with precision and confidence!

Our first @USSEC Development Academy class recently concluded and I couldn't be more proud of their potential. We designed the Academy to help emerging leaders broaden their knowledge of the #USSoy industry from seed to harvest and beyond. Huge thanks to all who participated!
New, high-efficiency #aquaculture is catching on throughout Asia. Innovation like this is key to global #foodsecurity as our population grows. #USSoy's high suitability as a feed ingredient in aquatic environments is only going to become more important.

Our world runs on #infrastructure. As we’ve seen recently, this critical infrastructure is not immune to “potholes,” as @AgWebEditor writer Steve Cubbage puts it in his recent article. It means we need to think big (and internationally) about resiliency!

The Army Corps of Engineers plans to fully open Baltimore's port and the Panama Canal is opening to more traffic. We’re overcoming logistical challenges in #globaltrade, but we must also think big about #supplychain resiliency now and on an ongoing basis.

#SoyFoodsMonth is an opportunity to appreciate #soy as part of a healthy diet. At USSEC, I’m also reflecting on how soy plays a key role in global #foodsecurity.
#USSoy farmers’ operations are becoming ever more sustainable.
The loss of the FS Key Bridge is a terrible human tragedy that also serves as a reminder of #supplychain issues faced by each industry. This raises questions not just of safety, but of resiliency, redundancy and contingency.

I and @ArlanFF101 discussed the March Prospective Plantings report, sharing key takeaways for #soybeans:
☁️Weather will be a major factor.
💰It's a good market for buyers.
📈Cuts to interest rates could benefit international trade.
