ST. LOUIS (January 27, 2016) \u2013 Last year, the soy checkoff partnered with researchers to develop 29 new soy-based products that replace petrochemicals and help manufacturers meet sustainability objectives. These products, and hundreds of others developed with checkoff support, add value to U.S. soy and expand its market potential.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cAt a time when prices are low, it\u2019s more important than ever to increase demand for U.S. soy,\u201d says checkoff farmer-leader Jim Domagalski, a soybean farmer from Columbus, Michigan. \u201cPart of that is finding new ways to use it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Products developed with checkoff support in 2015 include an insulating foam that helps green building contractors earn LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) certification, soy-based adhesives that replace formaldehyde without compromising quality, lubricants and solvents that reduce reliance on petrochemicals, and rubber belting that farmers can use in their equipment.<\/p>\n

New uses have helped farmers increase demand for U.S. soy from 14 million bushels in 2003 to more than 111 million bushels in 2013. This sales trajectory is expected to continue as a result of the soy checkoff\u2019s ongoing commitment to support the discovery of new soy technologies and share previous research findings that companies use to create more sustainable products.<\/p>\n

The 70 farmer-directors of USB oversee the investments of the soy checkoff to maximize profit opportunities for all U.S. soybean farmers. These volunteers invest and leverage checkoff funds to increase the value of U.S. soybean meal and oil, to ensure U.S. soybean farmers and their customers have the freedom and infrastructure to operate, and to meet the needs of U.S. soy\u2019s customers. As stipulated in the federal Soybean Promotion, Research and Consumer Information Act, the USDA Agricultural Marketing Service has oversight responsibilities for USB and the soy checkoff.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
