ASA President Brad Doyle

This week’s Open Mic guest is American Soybean Association President Brad Doyle, who says the availability of crop protection products and fertilizer is providing a challenging start to the 2022 crop year. The Arkansas farmer is encouraged to see discussion on a new farm bill beginning in Washington and is mindful of the political will to develop climate-smart policy. Doyle says soybean farmers have voluntarily adopted conservation practices on millions of acres and are counting on Congress to keep risk management as a top priority in new legislation. Doyle says soybean growers want to maintain global market access and are ready to step up production for next-generation renewable fuels.
