The crushing and soyfood industries will continue to rely on soybean imports to meet their needs as local production in the region is static. The feed and livestock industries are expected to grow by a healthy 10-15% over the next few years. This will drive increasing demand for soybean meal; and as poultry, livestock, and aquaculture producers become larger and more technically sophisticated, that demand will shift increasingly to higher quality dehulled soy meal. The use of full-fat soybean meal is also an expanding market. |
