Soyabean: A strategic crop - Seed Co Botswana | Field Crops
Soyabean crop is used as an affordable source of protein for livestock feeds. It is also used in making cooking oil, margarine, soya chunks, soap, milk to name a few. It is one of the richest crops in terms of crude protein (ranging between 35-45 %) and also contains 20 % oil. Indeed soyabean contributes significantly to food security in
Soybean: its general use and economic importance. Soybean (Glycine max) is an important legume plant that is cultivated all over the world, not only as a major source of oil and protein in livestock feeds but also for human consumption, soil fertility improvement and, amongst others, for producing industrial products such as soy inks, non-toxic adhesives, candles and paints (Hartman et al

Edible oil is most often plant based oil, edible oil may be liquid at room temperature. It is suitable for food and cooking use. Sunflower seed are used to make oil, meal and confectionary products.
Full article: The significance of soybean production
The production of soybean in the USA has been at its highest rate (89,507 million tons), over 33,640 million hectares since 2005 (USDA, 2013). Even though, soybean ( Glycine max (L.) Merr.) is one of the most feasible legumes in the prevailing climates in Africa, the crop is a non-native and non-staple crop in SSA.

- What is the best sunflower for Botswana?
- Recommended cultivar for Botswana is Russian number 4 that matures in 140-150days and grows to a height of 150-165cm. Its seed size is 1-1.5cm long and 0.5-0.8cm wide. Its colour is black, with black grey stripes. The yield potential is 8t/ha (Tsuaneng and Maphanyane 2000). Sunflowers are very susceptible to seed placed fertiliser injury.
- Why is sunflower the ideal crop for oil production?
- Marginal soils are being utilised more for production of sunflower which is less risky and require lower production inputs. It is expected that the demand for vegetable oils and proteins will increase in future, and sunflower is the ideal crop for oil production.
- How to grow sunflowers in Botswana?
- Sunflower requires low humidity and sunny conditions for optimal plant growth and development making it suitable for production in Botswana. Shorter growing season and better cold tolerance makes it suitable for later planting Ideal for crop rotation and cultivated under varying climatic conditions
- What is the most important oil seed crop in southern Africa?
- Sunflower ( Helianthus annus L.) is the most important oil seed crop in Southern Africa at present and is being grown virtually in all summer rainfall areas. Marginal soils are being utilised more for production of sunflower which is less risky and require lower production inputs.
