#SoyFoodsMonth is an opportunity to appreciate #soy as part of a healthy diet. At USSEC, I’m also reflecting on how soy plays a key role in global #foodsecurity. #USSoy farmers’ operations are becoming ever more sustainable.

The Army Corps of Engineers plans to fully open Baltimore's port and the Panama Canal is opening to more traffic. We’re overcoming logistical challenges in #globaltrade, but we must also think big about #supplychain resiliency now and on an ongoing basis. agriculturedive.com/news/panama-ca…

#Plant24 is well underway for #USSoy farmers around the country!

Our world runs on #infrastructure. As we’ve seen recently, this critical infrastructure is not immune to “potholes,” as AgWeb Editors writer Steve Cubbage puts it in his recent article. It means we need to think big (and internationally) about resiliency! agweb.com/news/crops/cro…

New, high-efficiency #aquaculture is catching on throughout Asia. Innovation like this is key to global #foodsecurity as our population grows. #USSoy's high suitability as a feed ingredient in aquatic environments is only going to become more important. reasonstobecheerful.world/adopting-the-a…

Our first USSEC Development Academy class recently concluded and I couldn't be more proud of their potential. We designed the Academy to help emerging leaders broaden their knowledge of the #USSoy industry from seed to harvest and beyond. Huge thanks to all who participated!

Sharing knowledge is one of USSEC’s key missions. The new Soybean Value Calculator allows our customers to plan with precision and confidence! #SoyTech #SoyInnovation ussec.org/empowering-eve…

Keeping tabs on the latest data is key to understanding the global economy. Last week, the Dept. of Agriculture released the #WASDE report and I had the opportunity to speak with Virginia Tech’s Jason Grant about what’s inside. Sign up for future updates. blog.ussec.org/ussoyanalysis_…

Exciting findings from Singapore on yet another way #USSoy can increase #aquaculture #sustainability as an ingredient in feed! phys.org/news/2024-04-s…

Last month, USSEC’s global events focused on animal #feed and #aquaculture! USSEC was active at the China Animal Husbandry Expo, the 10th annual Feed Formulation Workshop in Singapore, and AquaCon Invest in Dubai! #USSoy is a valuable part of feed and sustainably farmed fish!

#Aquaculture feed advancements are key if we want this form of cultivation to balance the food stability challenges of the future! One promising ingredient: Soybeans!

This past weekend, a new documentary called GroundBreaking on A+E Networks examines the role #USSoy plays in our lives, and how the industry is driving the innovation that will help us meet the challenges of the future. To learn more, visit GroundBreaking.ussoy.org.

New research on #aquaculture operations indicates wastewater from soybean processing for milk and meat alternatives could be useful in feed! The need for more sustainable protein is growing and this could be a novel solution. From Anthropocene: anthropocenemagazine.org/2024/05/a-surp…

At USSEC, we are always thinking about the future of #soybeans and what they mean for #foodsecurity. So National Geographic's look at the long history of what soy has meant to humanity is such an awe-inspiring reminder that we’re continuing the work of millennia. nationalgeographic.com/environment/ar…

For the first time, #aquaculture accounts for more fish production than fishing. #USSoy is a key part of balancing a more resilient #foodsecurity equation by being a nutritious, versatile, and sustainable ingredient in aquaculture feed. earth.com/news/aquacultu…

Knowledge is power, and knowing more about different soy #animalfeed products can have a huge economic impact over the course of a year. You can expect to hear much more about this from USSEC. Please reach out to a USSEC Team Member to learn more.

On behalf of USSEC, thanks to American Soybean Association Action Partnership for their ongoing collaboration! Together, we’re identifying industry challenges and developing action plans to address them, all guided by one principle: Supporting #USSoy farmers. Thanks to our USSEC team!
