Mission Statement: The mission of the MASA is to protect the
interests of soybean farmer-members in the Mid-Atlantic region. We
are organized and operated exclusively for education and scientific
purposes, including but not limited to the following activities:
1. Bring together all persons interested in the production,
marketing, distribution and utilization of soybeans and soybean
products.
2. Collect and disseminate, by publication and otherwise,
information relating to the practical and scientific phases of the
problems of increasing yields coupled with lessening costs (per
bushel).
3. Safeguard production against disease, weeds, insect pests and
other hazards.
4. Develop better varieties, cultural and management practices.
5. Encourage interest in the Federal and State governments,
experiment stations and industry throughout the region in such
educational and scientific projects.
6. Conduct research into scientific and nutritional characteristics
of soybeans and soybean products and to conduct educational
campaigns therefore.
7. Render service to the general public through dissemination of
scientific research and information.
