Description:

The National Soybean Research Laboratory (NSRL) is headquartered at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign. NSRL is involved in soybean research, outreach and education efforts from production to consumption. NSRL works to develop alliances both domestically and internationally with industry stakeholders to find soy solutions to minimize malnutrition, increase yield, open new markets and engage with those who are developing innovative processing and utilization technology with the ultimate goal to expand the scope and size of the U.S. soybean industry and improve the profitability of U.S. soybean farmers.

How to Help:

Organizations may engage with NSRL on local, state, national and international programs and projects through participation, collaboration and contribution. Organizations have purchased SoyCow machines for orphanages in Guatemala, VitaGoats for villages in Zimbabwe and nutritional education materials that can be used in classrooms around the world. NSRL’s work spans the globe and focuses on incorporating soy into the diets of those who can benefit from the addition of a complete protein.
