Great to be in Humboldt today meeting with farmers from eastern South Dakota to discuss the issues impacting South Dakota agriculture, including the future of the Farm Bill. I always enjoy hearing directly from the producers who keep our ag economy strong and learning more about the challenges and opportunities they’re seeing on the ground. Thank you to everyone who joined the conversation and to the SD Pork Producers for the delicious lunch.
We took a #SeeForYourself tour of the PNW to give a SD farmers glimpse into how their soybeans are transported globally as well as how the SD Soybean Checkoff is invested in building new global and domestic markets and improving transportation for SD soybeans.

SDSA heard from @lgrhoden at their board meeting in Pierre this morning. This afternoon they were recognized on the House floor by Rep. Drew Peterson. We're looking forward to legislators joining us tonight at the annual Legislative Ag Fest.
Morocco is the largest importer of soybean meal in the Middle East and North Africa and one of the top 15 importers of US Soybean meal. SD Soybean farmers and @SD_DANR Secretary Hunter Roberts went on a trade mission to learn how they can best meet and support the growing demand
SD Soybean Checkoff and SD Soybean Association farmer directors from across South Dakota attended Commodity Classic in New Orleans, LA.
They took tours, met with partner organizations, and spent time learning about new technology on the trade show floor.

When she's not helping tell the story of South Dakota's ag industry, she's expanding her own herd of cattle. Meet this week's Up-and-Comer. https://t.co/2Yiv2jC3tf

Consumers can feel confident about a stable food supply even as the pandemic continues. For many the massive disruptions in meat processing are still fresh on their minds. However, those issues have been fixed and farmers never missed a beat in producing food for the country.
South Dakotans love our state, & a lot of that love is for the natural beauty of our land. SD is leading the way in clean energy like wind & hydropower (~70% of SD energy generation) +biofuels. We can support clean energy WHILE boosting our economy – not crippling it. #EarthDay50
@DavidDobrik Venmo Jonalyn-Beastrom ❤️ she works on her family farm that is facing harsh markets and weather that isn’t allowing them to generate income like usual. Agriculture is hurting and any help is appreciated😊🐮🐑🌱
The World is ever-changing, but what remains constant is our need for food and agriculture.
Thank you to our farmers, ranchers and those who never stop working to put food on our tables. #nationalagday

I was feeling some unwarranted stress this morning and I wasn’t sure the source until I remembered I had a dream last night that my mom was judging me for my bank account spending and balance.
My retail therapy might be having adverse effects...😬😂
