  • Does South Africa export soybean oilcake?
  • South Africa is a small player given the soybean oilcake export market. In the past five years the industry has exported an average of 39 443 tons of oilcake. All exports were destined for the African markets, mainly Botswana, Mozambique, Namibia, Lesotho and Angola. South Africa also imports significant volumes of soybean oil.
  • How is soybean oil made?
  • To produce soybean oil, the soybeans are cracked, adjusted for moisture content, heated to between 140°F and 190°F, rolled into flakes, and solvent-extracted with hexane. The oil is then refined, blended for different applications, and sometimes hydrogenated.
  • Does South Africa still import soybean oil?
  • Despite the increasing levels of soybean production, South Africa still imports considerable volumes of soybean oilcake and oil, and there is still considerable scope for production increases in order to substitute these imports. In fact, South Africa¡¯s domestic soybean production is only a third of the country¡¯s crushing capacity.
  • Where is soybean produced in South Africa?
