Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

To provide resources that communicate the quality diversity and availability of identity-preserved soya and specialty grain products.

  • SSGA works closely with Qualified State Soybean Boards which are the elected farmers of each state who carry out the Soybean Promotion Research and Consumer Information Act. QSSBs invest farmer checkoff money into the research promotion and development of new markets for soybeans. Through this program SSGA worked to implement grants for QSSBs to grow the IP marketplace for U.S. soybean farmers. Additionally SSGAs work helped to educate current and potential IP soybean growers.

    Expenses $5,035

  • Using funding secured from an Agricultural Trade Promotion grant from the USDAs Foreign Agricultural Service SSGA began work to create a U.S. IP brand and digital IP exchange targeting markets in North Asia Southeast Asia and Europe. SSGA hired one technical adviser for each region and provided training for the advisers along with staff and board. SSGA also commissioned a study to analyze the IP market opportunity in the Philippines and awarded contracts for U.S. IP brand development and the creation of IP technical manuals to help potential customers understand the value of the IP system. SSGA also worked to address market issue including work with partners and agencies to delay implementation of Japans phytosanitary certificate requirement.

  • SSGA worked heavily on educating the industry and governmental agencies foreign and domestic on changes of international phytosanitary regulations. The organization invested heavily into developing standards and guidelines to meet the needs of international regulation and contine to grow the international market for U.S. grown soybeans and other specialty grains

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Not present in the most recent drop.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
