  • Where is soybean produced in South Africa?
  • Production perspective Soybean is produced throughout the country, but significant production takes place in the Free State and Mpumalanga provinces. South African soybean production has always varied throughout the years, but mostly above the domestic demand (see Graph 1 ).
  • 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.
  • Which country produces the most soybeans in Africa?
  • In 2011, soybean was planted on 1·1 million ha of land in SSA, which is approximately 1% of the total arable land. Major production is concentrated in South Africa, which is the leading producer in Africa, contributing about 35% of the total production, followed by Nigeria (27%) and Uganda (8·5%) (FAOSTAT, 2011 ).
  • Is South Africa closing the gap with surplus soybean production?
  • South Africa is slowly closing the gap with surplus soybean production, while expansion of local crushing capacity is currently enough to service the current and additional demand. Graph 1: South African soybean area planted, production, demand and yield.
