Your Checkoff Dollars
The NDSC oversees collections for the federal soybean checkoff program. The Soybean Promotion, Research and Consumer Information Act, realizes over $5-6 million dollars for ND annually of soybean checkoff dollars.
Your money is split between state and federal programs.
- 50% goes to the national soybean promotion program, overseen by the United Soybean Board
- 50% stay in N.D. to fund research that help growers improve soybean production and find new uses for soybeans.
