Attention Illinois Soybean Growers...
Compete in the 2013 Yield Challenge for a chance to win $5,000!
It’s that time of year again! ISA invites soybean growers from across Illinois to take part in the 2013 Yield Challenge. The Challenge – which provides growers with a platform to test innovative crop management strategies and technologies that could help boost yields – will look a little different from years past. Each soybean grower will register and compete in the Challenge as an individual... there will be no official teams this year. Growers in each district who see the highest percent increase in yields will be awarded – first place will receive $500 and second place will receive $250. There is also a special 100 Bushel Challenge with an award of $5,000 to the entrant with the greatest yield over 100 bushels/acre.
Discover how the Challenge works and register today. Cost to enter is $25. Call (888) 826-4011 or email yieldchallenge@ilsoy.org for more information. For official guidelines, click here.
College and FFA Chapter Challenge
What better way to learn about effective crop production techniques than to compete in the ISA Yield Challenge? The team with the highest percent yield increase over their local county average will win cash awards for their school. Winning teams will be recognized for their participation and achievements. The college and FFA categories each will have a 1st and 2nd place award of $1,000 and $500, respectively. Find out more information on how the Challenge works and let us know that you are interested today. Cost to enter is $25.
