Input on ISA's policy development

ISA’s policy is developed by and for the membership. Learn more about our policies and the work we are doing on your behalf.

Delegates from each of Iowa’s nine crop districts meet to change or approve ISA’s Policy Resolutions Document each year. The document serves as an advocacy roadmap for soybean farmers and staff. Guiding principles are affirmed pertaining to conservation, trade, biofuels, biotechnology and a host of other soybean-related issues. You can request the document from Katie Hall, ISA senior director of advocacy.

Access to national affiliations

These non-checkoff resources also support ISA’s commitment to invest and be involved with the American Soybean Association (ASA) , the soybean industry’s national policy arm. When you sign up to be an ISA Advocate Member, you gain access to these resources and information.

ASA represents U.S. soybean farmers on domestic and international policy issues important to the soybean industry. ASA has 26 affiliated state associations representing 30 soybean-producing states and more than 300,000 soybean farmers.
