Leaders of the American Soybean Association Feb. 26 criticized the members of the new U.S. Soybean Federation (USSF). Formed by members of the Minnesota Soybean Growers Association and the Missouri Soybean Association, USSF was criticized by John Hoffman, chairman of the ASA Executive Committee, during a news conference held by ASA at the Commodity Classic.
"We've got a lot of members in good standing from Minnesota and Missouri. We've been told by producers and by our industry partners and by those in the halls of Congress that we need one strong voice for the soybean grower and that's the ASA. I think the federation will flutter away," said Hoffman, a Waterloo, Iowa, producer.
