Researchers, Extension professionals, students and industry partners are invited to participate in the 2026 North Dakota State University Soybean Symposium on March 5 at NDSU’s Memorial Union in Fargo, North Dakota. The symposium is a forum dedicated to advancing soybean research, management and innovation across the Midwest.
The event will feature research presentations, student competitions and networking opportunities, and it is supported by the North Dakota Soybean Council and industry partners.
The symposium will include oral and poster presentations spanning three major focus areas: agronomy, plant pathology and new-uses research. Graduate students, postdoctoral researchers and research staff are encouraged to submit abstracts for a chance to present their work and compete for cash prizes. The abstract submission deadline is Feb. 5.
“This symposium is an important venue for connecting research with real-world soybean production challenges,” says Ana Carcedo, NDSU Extension broadleaf crops agronomist and symposium organizer. “It provides an opportunity to share new findings, foster collaboration across disciplines and support student professional development.”
