Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders recently appointed Brad Doyle, a Poinsett County soybean producer, to the Arkansas Soybean Promotion Board. He will serve on the board through June 30, 2025.

“The Arkansas Soybean Promotion Board’s mission is to improve the sustainability and profitability of soybeans,” said John Freeman, ASPB Chairman and Desha County producer. “Brad’s background and knowledge of the crop make him a great addition to the board.”

Doyle’s agricultural roots trace back to his great-grandfather, who cultivated soybeans on the family farm in Cross County. After scouting soybeans and cotton in the 1990s, he returned to his family origins after meeting his wife, Joyce, and joining her family’s operation in 2001.

Doyle graduated from Arkansas State University and later purchased his first farm in 2003. He and his wife, who received her Ph.D. in plant breeding from the University of Arkansas, grow row crops, including soybeans, for the family seed business while conducting crop and wildlife seed replicated small plot and strip trials.

Doyle’s goal is to use his understanding of the global soybean market and his background in soybean breeding research to help other farmers achieve a higher return on investment from their checkoff dollars.
