Greatness begins as a tiny seed, planted with care by U.S. farmers. It grows into sustainable solutions that entire industries depend on. When a hungry world needs protein, soy has it covered. When truckers need fuel, soy keeps them moving. From innovative new uses to efficient applications, soybeans are capable of more than you might expect.
This Bean Means Business
Food
A Versatile Ingredient for Better Health
U.S. soybeans help nourish communities across the globe. Soy is a high-quality plant protein, providing all nine essential amino acids our bodies need for optimal function.
- Superior nutritional profile for healthier, protein-packed, better-for-you foods.
- Multifunctional performance that contributes to improved texture, longer shelf stability, improved fat profile, and extended fry life.
- Sustainable supply for reliable growth—without compromising environmental responsibility.
Feed
Protein With Proven Performance
For animal feed producers, U.S. soybeans are a dependable protein source with key nutrients. Soybean meal from the U.S. has a more consistent and superior nutrition profile, with less variability than meal from competing regions.
- Consistent protein quality with superior digestibility, valuable energy contribution, and a complete amino acid profile.
- Better feed efficiency with functional compounds proven to support animal health.
- Sustainable production and dependable supply to support long-term feed needs.
Fuel
Fuel for a Sustainable Future
U.S. soybeans are a renewable resource that fuels measurable progress. From maritime and rail transport to clean-burning heat for homes, biofuels cut greenhouse gas emissions by 70% compared to traditional petroleum diesel.
- Delivers multiple energy pathways—from biodiesel to Bioheat, renewable diesel, sustainable aviation fuel, and more.
- Consistent, uniform feedstock quality minimizes variability and supports efficient, scalable production.
- Meets fuel standards and emissions targets through a scalable domestic supply that reduces reliance on imported feedstocks.
Industrial
High-Performing Cleaner Solutions
