During their annual meeting, the American Soybean Association Board of Directors elected the leaders who will guide the organization through the changing policy landscape on Capitol Hill.
Kevin Scott of South Dakota will serve as the 2021 ASA President. Scott previously was the vice president, secretary, and an at-large member of the ASA Governing Committee. Scott’s been on the ASA board since 2012. He and his wife Jannell farm in southeast South Dakota with a son, brother, and nephew on a fourth-generation farm that began in 1886.
Immediate past president Bill Gordon of Minnesota moves into the role of ASA chairman. The former chair, Davie Stephens, rotates off the nine-member governing committee but remains on the ASA board. The board also elected Brad Doyle of Arkansas to serve as vice president, a position that has him next in line to be the association’s president in 2022. Doyle operates Berger Farms/Eagle Seed with his wife Joyce, a second-generation soybean breeder. Daryl Cates of Illinois is the secretary, and Stan Born, also from Illinois, is the treasurer.
