The American Soybean Association will be holding their Board meeting this week on Wednesday and Thursday. Vice President Kevin Scott who will ascend to the Presidency at the meeting says their sessions will be held virtually.

He says a lot of their discussion will center around changes effecting agriculture both in Congress and with the new Administration coming in and how they’ll engage with those leaders.

Scott says he’ll be unveiling most of his and his board’s goals for pushing the soybean industry forward following the meeting.

Scott says several of their issues will remain the same, including the RFS, trade, regulations, the environment and markets.
