  • How many tons of soybeans are produced in 2020?
  • The world soybean production was projected at 311.1 million metric tons in 2020 and 371.3 million metric tons in 2030. The annual growth rates are 2.9% from 2005¨C07 to 2010 and were projected to be 2.5% from 2010 to 2020, and 1.8% from 2020 to 2030.

  • What is the global cottonseed production in 2019/2020?
  • The global cottonseed production in 2019/2020 is estimated to be ~44.84 metric million tons (MMT) (Statista, 2020 accessed on July 25, 2020). Cottonseeds contain 17¨C22% oil, and after oil extraction, cottonseed meal (CSM) is obtained as a coproduct (Hernandez, 2016, pp. 242¨C246) (Fig. 2).
  • Why have farmers substituted cotton crops for soybean production?
  • In cases where farmers have substituted cotton crops for soybean production, it is due to the capacity of the soybean crop in enhancing soil fertility, and also increased demand for soy implies more market to the small-scale farmers.
