Whole Soybeans as Food Ingredient

Today's market for soybeans as food, a combination of traditional and modern uses, is the focus of this study published by Soyatech. The crushing of soybeans for animal feed and vegetable oil has historically dominated overall usage of the world crop. Today, however, there is a large and growing use of whole soybeans for direct human food. Although most of this demand is in Asia where soybeans have traditionally been used as food, a growing market for soy protein products and soyfoods in Western nations is helping to create a new value-added market for soybeans beyond crushing.
