Dakotafest South Dakota Soybean had a booth at Dakotafest August 17-19 in Mitchell, SD. The South Dakota Soybean Checkoff sponsored soy-based dust suppressant on 4th and 5th streets at the event. Farmers that stopped by the booth were able to enter in a giveaway for a set of Goodyear soy-based tires. Visitors were also able to pick up soy-based grease pads for fifth wheel plates. Thanks for visiting us at Dakotafest!

Sioux Empire Fair South Dakota Soybean hosted “Soybean Day” and had a booth in the Pipestone Discovery Barn on August 9th at the Sioux Empire Fair. Young fairgoers planted soybeans to take home. After planting, participants learned about products and uses for soybeans. Other attractions of the barn are live sows, piglets, chicks, layers, dairy cows, beef calves, and information on row crops. If you haven’t stopped by the Pipestone Discovery Barn before, check out a live tour on our Facebook page, SD Soybean.
