WSA Elects New President During Corn-Soy Expo
Wisconsin Ag Connection - 02/06/2023

The Wisconsin Soybean Association (WSA) Board of Directors elected new leadership, set its 2023 vision, announced the winners of its Soybean Yield Contest and honored past directors during the organization's Annual Meeting Thursday as part of the annual Wisconsin Corn-Soy Expo at Kalahari Resort.

The farmer-led board elected Sara Stelter to serve as president. Stelter was elevated after serving two years as vice president under President Steve Trzebiatowski.

"I've been so thankful that Steve was at the helm. He's so calm and has such a good overall perspective," said Stelter, who also represents the Wisconsin Soybean Marketing Board on the United Soybean Board. "He did a fantastic job as president."

Stelter, who farms in central Wisconsin, said she looks forward to collaborating with WSA's officer team, which includes Vice President Doug Rebout, Secretary Daniel Linse and Treasurer Matt Rehberg, who was elected to another term as District 1 director.

"I look forward to implementing our strategic plan and incorporating a team approach," she said. "We have a great board at WSA, and the organization works best when we're leading in the same direction."

After six years on the board, District 4 Director Tony Mellenthin stepped off WSA to focus on his role overseeing the national checkoff program with USB. Emily Carolan (District 1) and Matt Karls (District 2) retired from their spots on WSA. Dave Coggins was appointed to replace Carolan as an Industry Director, and the board elected Rock County's Evan Dalldorf to fill the board's other industry position. WSA is still seeking to fill one vacant director role.

Trzebiatowski will remain a director and said Stelter's deep knowledge of farm policy will benefit WSA in the year ahead.
