Soy board issues call for candidates

BLOOMINGTON, Ill. — The Illinois Soybean Board is seeking candidates for at-large directors.

These individuals will be nominated by the majority of the board sitting in a quorum at a meeting to be determined. Thereafter, two of the nominated individuals will be elected by a majority of soybean producers in attendance at the ISB meeting in July.

ISB members serve a term of three years and are eligible for up to three consecutive terms.

Any interested producer must notify the board of their desire to become a candidate for an at-large position by sending a letter of interest to Illinois Soybean Association, Attn: Director of Operations, 1108 Trinity Lane, Bloomington, IL 61704.

This letter of interest must be postmarked no later than April 18. Letters of interest may also be sent via email to dustin.scott@ilsoy.org. The same deadline applies.

Once intent is expressed, candidates will be emailed a link to an online application. Online applications must be completed and submitted electronically no later than April 25.

There is no write-in provision for at-large director elections.
