DYLcover14The American Soybean Association (ASA) and DuPont Pioneer are seeking applicants for the 2014 Young Leader Program.

The program will continue Feb. 25-March 1, 2014 in San Antonio, with training held in conjunction with the annual Commodity Classic Convention and Trade Show.

The ASA/DuPont Young Leader program offers the opportunity for participants to strengthen and build upon their natural leadership skills, meet and learn from other young leaders from around the country and expand their agricultural knowledge.

Applications will be accepted online beginning June 3. Interested applicants should go to www.SoyGrowers.com/dyl.
