United Soybean Board (USB) director Nancy Kavazanjian and American Soybean Association (ASA) president Davie Stephens traveled to Japan and South Korea in November 16-23 to attend the U.S. Soy Buyers Outlook Conferences.
The grower leaders presented an overview of U.S. soybean production, growing conditions and 2020 planting intentions during the 2019 first quarter U.S. Soy Buyers Outlook Conferences in both Tokyo and Seoul last month. The outlook conferences provide Japanese and Korean buyers with a better understanding of U.S. soybean production and the supply and demand situation, while also encouraging more purchases of U.S. soybeans and soy products.
