What are the top drivers to the rising demand in the soybean market?
The rising animal feed consumption is expected to propel the growth of the soybean market going forward. Animal feed refers to food given to domestic animals, typically including grains, forages, and supplements, to provide the necessary nutrients for their growth, maintenance, and production. The increasing demand for animal feed is driven by the rising global population and the growing consumption of meat and dairy products. Soybeans are used in animal feed primarily due to their high protein content, essential amino acids, and favorable nutrient profile, making them an efficient source of nutrition for livestock. For instance, in September 2024, according to the Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board, a UK-based statutory levy board, from July to January this season, total production, including integrated poultry units (IPU), reached 7.81 million tonnes, marking a 1.3% increase compared to the same period last year, which saw feed production of 7.71 million tonnes. Therefore, rising animal feed consumption is driving growth in the soybean market.

What significant trends should we anticipate in the soybean market over the forecast period?
Major companies operating in the soybean market are focusing on innovative solutions, such as high-yield soy seed varieties, to enhance crop yield and resilience. High-yield soyseed varieties are genetically enhanced or selectively bred soybeans designed to produce greater quantities of soybeans per acre compared to traditional varieties. For instance, in March 2024, Protealis, a Belgium-based seeds and seed technologies developer for sustainable plant proteins, launched four new soybean varieties in Europe PRO Vesuvio, PRO Helicon, PRO Taranaki, and PRO Jacinto. These varieties are specifically bred to perform well in shorter growing seasons and colder conditions, making them ideal for regions such as Belgium, France, and Germany. This strategic initiative aims to boost local protein production and offer sustainable alternatives for farmers transitioning away from traditional crops. These varieties are designed to deliver both high yield and high protein content, essential for European farmers seeking to adopt more sustainable practices in their crop rotations.
