SOYBEAN MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW

The global soybean market size was estimated at USD 139.11 billion in 2024, set to expand to USD 196.84 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 3.6% during the forecast period from 2025 to 2033.

The soybean (Glycine max) is a type of legume native to East Asia that is commonly produced for its edible bean, which has a variety of uses. Soy milk, from which tofu and tofu skin are formed, is a traditional unfermented dietary usage of soybeans. Soy sauce, fermented bean paste, natto, and tempeh are examples of fermented soy foods. Soybean meal, which is fat-free (defatted), is a substantial and inexpensive source of protein for animal feeds and many packaged meals.

Soybean derivatives, such as textured vegetable protein (TVP), are used in various meat and dairy alternatives. Soybeans have high levels of phytic acid, nutritional minerals, and B vitamins. Another byproduct of soybean crop processing is soy vegetable oil, which is used in food and industrial uses. Soybeans are the most important protein source for agricultural animals, which produces animal protein for human use.

COVID-19 IMPACT

"Pandemic Led to A Decline in the Market Growth"

The COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the coaxial agitators markets market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

Several commercial operations were affected due to the COVID-19 pandemic and global lockdown protocols. Furthermore, COVID-19 hampered people's capacity to mobilize for work, particularly farmers. As a result, people's incomes and purchasing power have decreased. Rising food costs cause food insecurity and a rise in the number of undernourished people. The soybean business would expand due to the increased demand for soy products following the epidemic.

The confrontation between Russia and Ukraine also caused enormous casualties and property damage. The agriculture industry has suffered, and the supply chain has been disrupted. The conflict had a severe impact on the business and agricultural sectors. As a result, soy products and soybean oils suffered considerable price increases worldwide. With consumer demand at an all-time high and insufficient production and supply infrastructure, the import and export of soybean feed has recently experienced a significant issue.

LATEST TRENDS

"Agreement Toward Sustainable Land Management to Increase Agricultural Productivity"

In 2022, the World Bank Board of Directors approved a USD 24.58 million grant agreement to implement a Sustainable Land Management (SLM) program in Brazil that increases agricultural productivity for the soybean and beef cattle value chains, allowing large areas of degraded pastures to be recovered while reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

DRIVING FACTORS

"Rising Disposable Income of Consumers to Amply Market Growth"

Demand for soybean byproducts such as soybean meal and oil cakes has surged recently. The items' great nutritional content increased their appeal among consumers, which is expanding the market. Consumers' greater disposable income in industrialized countries and improved soybean output in these countries boosted demand for soybean byproducts.

"Rising Animal Feed Consumption to Boost Market Growth"

The need for animal protein expanded in rapidly developing countries such as China, as did the demand for high-protein animal feedstuffs such as soybean meal. Because long-term growth rates outpace gains in yield per land unit, there is an increasing demand for soybean production. As a result, soybean meal is utilized as animal feed and for human consumption. The health benefits of protein-enriched foods and the growing quantity of livestock, cattle, ruminants, and other animals on the global market are driving up demand for them.

RESTRAINING FACTOR

"Lack of Regulatory Standards of the Product to Be a Major Restraint "

One of the key challenges inhibiting the growth of the soybean meal sector is a lack of regulatory standards. This trend is considerably more widespread in countries where frameworks based on scientific risk have been established to oversee national food safety regulations.
