The Missouri Soybean Association and Missouri Soybean Merchandising Council are proud to announce the newest class of the Missouri Grassroots Fellowship program. This year’s fellows represent soybean farmers from across the state, bringing fresh perspectives and leadership potential to the future of Missouri agriculture.
The 2025 Missouri Grassroots Fellows include:
The Missouri Grassroots Fellowship is designed to prepare young farmers, ages 25–45, to be strong advocates for agriculture and leaders in their communities. Fellows participate in a year-long program featuring in-depth sessions on policy, media training and grassroots engagement. They also take part in advocacy trips to Jefferson City and Washington, D.C., and learn about international trade opportunities through global market development.
“Investing in the next generation of leaders is essential for the future of Missouri agriculture,” said Renee Fordyce, MSA president. “This fellowship equips farmers with the skills, relationships and experiences they need to represent their peers and strengthen the voice of agriculture.”
Now in its fifth year, the Missouri Grassroots Fellowship has built a strong track record of shaping future leaders who step into roles on local boards, commodity organizations and statewide initiatives.
