Soybean checkoff groups are willing to invest $1 million to offset pre-engineering and design work for a key lock and dam on the Upper Mississippi River.

The funding is coming from the United Soybean Board, the Soy Transportation Coalition and state soybean boards in Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois and Missouri.
