Countries by soybean production in 2020. This is a list of countries by soybean production from 2016 to 2022, based on data from the Food and Agriculture Organization Corporate Statistical Database. [1] The total world production for soybeans in 2022 was 348,856,427 metric tonnes, down 6.4% from 372,853,699 tonnes in 2021. [1]
In agriculture, the yield is a measurement of the amount of a crop grown, or product such as wool, meat or milk produced, per unit area of land. The seed ratio is another way of calculating yields. Innovations, such as the use of fertilizer , the creation of better farming tools, new methods of farming and improved crop varieties , have ...
A quantitative measure of the famine are grain prices, which show high prices in eastern and central Tigray, spreading outward after the 1984 crop failure. [1] A major drain on Ethiopia's economy was the ongoing civil war, which pitched rebel movements against the Soviet and Cuban-backed Derg government. This crippled the country's economy ...
After a five-year run that featured a costly trade war and deadly pandemic, the big players in the soybean market will face a hard 2023/24 year. U.S. soybean farmers face a projected 491 million ...
Between 1930 and 1942, the United States' share of world soybean production grew from 3% to 47%, and by 1969 it had risen to 76%. By 1973 soybeans were the United States' "number one cash crop, and leading export commodity, ahead of both wheat and corn". [8] Although soybeans developed as the top cash crop, corn also remains as an important ...
The international market price of wheat doubled from February 2007 to February 2008 hitting a record high of over US$10 a bushel. [92] Rice prices also reached ten-year highs. In some nations, milk and meat prices more than doubled, while soy (which hit a 34-year high price in December 2007 [93]) and maize prices have increased dramatically.
On average, one unit of soybeans produces 80% soybean meal, 18.3% soybean oil, and 1.7% waste, though growing conditions affect oil yields. [2] To calculate the crush margin of one unit of soybeans, take the % value of the soybean meal and oil futures (e.g., in CNY/metric ton purchased on the Dalian Commodity Exchange) and subtract the value of the soybeans (e.g., in USD/bushel purchased on ...
Paraguay's production was expected to reach barely 2.97 million tons in 2022, 68% less than in 2020/21. The average yield was only 900 kg/ha, the lowest figure in Paraguay's history, which led to increased idling of soybean oil processing plants. [7]
