  • Is there a future for soy production in South Africa?
  • Another opportunity for exploring soy production lies in the ever-increasing demand for soybean cake for animal feed, as a consequence of the growth in the middle©class population in South Africa and other neighbouring countries (Bureau for Food and Agricultural Policy, 2017 ).
  • How many soybeans were planted in South Africa in 2022/2023?
  • The soybean industry is at the forefront of this exceptional increase and in 2022/2023 a record of 1 148 300 ha soybeans were planted in South Africa with a record harvest of 2,75 million tons. In certain districts of the country soybeans have now become the main crop.
  • Does soybean production have a bright future in Africa?
  • The author argues that soybean production has a bright future in Africa due to the emerging and increasing demand for soybean oil and feed for livestock by the middle class. However, Africa continues to rely on the investment of largely resource©poor smallholders for the majority of crop production.
  • What is happening with oilcake production in South Africa?
  • At the same time, imports of oilcake for animal feed production have decreased from 900 302 tons to an estimated 220 000 tons. The soybean industry is at the forefront of this exceptional increase and in 2022/2023 a record of 1 148 300 ha soybeans were planted in South Africa with a record harvest of 2,75 million tons.
