Soybeans, scientifically known as Glycine max, are a type of legume native to East Asia. They are widely cultivated for various purposes, including as a food source, animal feed, and for the production of soybean oil and other soy-based products. Soybeans are an essential ingredient in many cuisines around the world, and their versatility and nutritional benefits have made them a popular choice.
Soybeans are a rich source of protein, and they provide all the essential amino acids, making them a valuable plant-based protein option for vegans and vegetarians. They also contain healthy fats, including omega-3 fatty acids, which are beneficial for heart health. Soybeans are packed with various vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin K, folate, potassium, iron, and magnesium. Additionally, they are high in fiber, aiding in digestion and promoting digestive health.
One of the key uses of soybeans is the production of soybean oil, which is commonly used in cooking, as a salad dressing, and for making margarine and mayonnaise. Soybean oil is low in saturated fat and rich in polyunsaturated fats, particularly omega-6 fatty acids. It is also a good source of vitamin E, an antioxidant that helps protect the body from cellular damage.
Soybeans are also processed into various soy-based products, such as tofu, tempeh, soy milk, and soy sauce. Tofu is a popular plant-based protein option and is made from curdling soy milk and pressing the resulting curds into a solid block. Tempeh is another soy-based product made by fermenting cooked soybeans and forming them into a compact cake. Soy milk is a dairy-free alternative to cow's milk and is made by soaking, grinding, and boiling soybeans. Soy sauce is a condiment commonly used in Asian cuisines and is made by fermenting soybeans, wheat, water, and salt.
In addition to their culinary uses, soybeans have numerous non-food applications. They are used in the production of biodiesel, an alternative fuel source that helps reduce carbon emissions. Soybeans are also used in the production of animal feed, contributing to the livestock industry. The byproducts of soybean processing, such as soybean meal and soybean hulls, are valuable sources of protein and fiber for livestock feed.
Overall, soybeans are a versatile and nutritious crop that plays a significant role in both the food industry and various other industries. Their protein content, healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals make them a valuable addition to a balanced diet, and their numerous uses make them an essential crop globally.

In 2021, the average annual soybean price soared by 43% y/y to $583 per ton. This year, soybean prices were expected to remain relatively stable, but shortages in supply are likely to spur their growth.
The currently increasing demand for soybeans in biofuel production, animal feed and food products outpaced production growth, resulting in a significant hike in soya prices. Together with expectations of further price growth, it contributes to rising costs of many downstream products and accelerates food inflation. In China, rebuilding pig herds after swine fever outbreaks emerges as a new driver for the global market. Those factors highlight soybeans as an attractive commodity to invest in, leading to robust expansion of crop acreage in the U.S. and Brazil.
