The Tennessee Soybean Promotion Board (TSPB) is the Qualified State Soybean Board (QSSB) for Tennessee producers in the national checkoff program. TSPB promotes the growth and development of our state's soybean industry by investing checkoff funds in research, advertisement, promotion, education, and market development. The board membership is composed of nine soybean producers from across the state. The Tennessee Soybean Association, the Tennessee Farmers Co-Operative, and the Tennessee Farm Bureau Federation each make three nominations to the Commissioner of Agriculture who selects one member from each nomination list. Board members are selected for three-year terms with the limitation of two consecutive terms. TSPB members are prohibited from using checkoff funds for lobbying purposes.

The Tennessee Soybean Promotion Council (TSPC) is responsible for managing the day to day operations of the soybean programs of both TSPB and TSA. The Council is composed of the chairman and vice chairman of the TSPB, the president and vice president of the TSA, the Tennessee director of the American Soybean Association, and the Tennessee directors of the United Soybean Board.

The Tennessee Soybean Association (TSA) is a membership organization concerned with state, national, and international policies that affect soybean producer profits in Tennessee. TSA is affiliated with the American Soybean Association (ASA) in St. Louis, Missouri. Members work with state and national legislators in designing trade laws and regulations to enhance our ability to continue making a profit in the production of soybeans.
