The annual South Dakota Soybean Yield and Quality Contest was created to recognize and reward South Dakota’s top soybean producers. The contest encourages new and innovative soybean management practices, and it also provides valuable agronomic data for farmers across the state. (Not to mention there are some great prizes involved!)

Soybean farmers have the opportunity to enter the contest each spring by submitting a planting form. Entrants must also submit and complete a harvest form in the fall with their yield information.

The South Dakota Soybean Yield and Quality Contest is sponsored by the South Dakota Soybean Research and Promotion Council and South Dakota Soybean Processors, and managed by the South Dakota Soybean Association.
