Back in December, Gregg Fujan of Weston was reappointed to the United Soybean Board (USB), bringing his experience and dedication back to the national soybean checkoff program. A soybean and corn farmer, Fujan has previously served on USB and was a former chairman of the Nebraska Soybean Board. He also led the North Central Soybean Research Program as president. Greg is one of four farmer-leaders representing Nebraska on USB, helping drive initiatives that enhance profitability and market opportunities for U.S. soybean farmers.
Joining Fujan in USB leadership is Ed Lammers of Hartington who was recently elected to the USB Executive Committee. Lammers’ focus on innovation makes him a key voice in guiding national soybean research, education and promotion priorities. His leadership has that Nebraska farmers have a strong advocate as USB works to strengthen demand and develop new uses for soybeans.
Nebraska’s leadership on USB is rounded out by Greg Greving of Chapman and Victor Bohuslavsky of Seward, both dedicated farmer-leaders who bring valuable insight and experience to the board. Together, they represent Nebraska’s soybean growers, ensuring the state plays an active role in shaping the future success of the industry and soybean checkoff.
THANK YOU, TONY!
The Nebraska Soybean Board also recognizes Tony Johanson of Oakland for his years of service. Tony served on the Nebraska Soybean Board from 2013 to 2019 and represented the state on the United Soybean Board from 2018 to 2024. During his tenure, he worked tirelessly to improve market opportunities and promote U.S. and Nebraska soybeans in innovative ways. While stepping away from USB, Tony is excited to continue full-time farming and looks forward to spending time with his family, participating more in 4-H and contributing to his local community.
