About Us

In its ongoing efforts to educate the public on issues and concerns facing the agricultural marketplace, United Soybean Board (USB) has produced the GetBiotechSmart.com website to provide biotechnology information and tools to teachers and students. This web portal is designed to address the questions around biotechnology and generate corresponding discussions through video podcasts, e-learning modules, a teacher forum, and other e-resources.

The USB is dedicated to helping the American soybean farmer succeed in the field and in the agricultural marketplace. Through a group of 68 volunteer farmer-leaders, U.S. soybean farmers invests hundreds of millions in their own national and state checkoff programs to help meet the most important food needs of a growing global population. U.S. soybean farmers remain committed to meeting the future food needs of our country and the world both now and in the future. These volunteer efforts help individual growers by creating new market connections and opportunities through continued research and market promotions.
