Trimont, Minn., farmer and Minnesota Soybean Research & Promotion Council (MSR&PC) Director for District 8 Rochelle Krusemark was voted onto the United Soybean Board’s (USB) Executive Committee.

Krusemark, a USB director for Minnesota, was elected to the position at USB’s winter meetings Wednesday and Thursday in St. Louis.

“I am honored and excited to serve on the USB Executive Committee,” Krusemark said from St. Louis. “Just as the Minnesota Soybean Research & Promotion Council directors serve our state soybean farmers, USB directors increase our peripheral vision to maximize profit opportunities for U.S. soybean farmers by leveraging soybean checkoff resources.”
