The Missouri Soybean Association (MSA) is excited to announce the addition of Ben Travlos as director of policy. As issues facing Missouri soybean producers continue to evolve and grow, Travlos is set to play a pivotal role in addressing these challenges.
Travlos will work alongside senior director of policy and chief operating officer, Casey Wasser, to enhance MSA’s political and industry influence. His work will include state and federal priorities ranging from protecting our members’ water resources and freedom to operate to maximizing the value of Missouri soybeans within domestic and international markets.
“Achieving meaningful progress requires a dedicated team,” said Wasser. “With Ben on board, I’m confident we have the expertise and leadership needed to drive positive change within a complex marketplace often driven by state and federal policy. Together, with Liz Henderson transitioning into a new role as a member of our influential contract team, we’ll continue to push forward our mission to protect and promote the interests of Missouri’s soybean producers.”
Travlos brings a wealth of experience to his new role. He previously held positions with Missouri Department of Agriculture, Missouri Corn Growers Association, and, most recently, Missouri Farm Bureau as director of state and local legislative affairs.
