This year’s Farmfest, held Aug. 6-8 at the Gilfillan Estate near Redwood Falls is quickly approaching. Here are just a few reasons why you should stop by Minnesota Soybean’s booth 620.

- See a refurbished Cummins Jeep while learning about the advancements in new engine technologies and its impact on emissions.
- Put your pest identification skills to the test. Be sure to check out the variety of soybean pests on display, including soybean gall midge and Palmer amaranth.
- Meet with a farmer leader overseeing checkoff investments. Be sure to ask questions on current checkoff-funded projects.
- Soybean checkoff-paying farmers will receive a free hitch pin (limited quantity per day).
- The Minnesota Soybean Growers Association will also be in the booth, making booth 620 a hotbed for policy issues affecting Minnesota agriculture.
