MEAL
Increase the value of U.S. soybean
oil to the entire value chain
Feed Industry
•
Goal 1:
– Differentiate the value, sustainability, and competitive
advantage of U.S. soy from other competing products
and origins to increase value and/or market share.
• Target Audience:
– Aquafeed manufacturers and aquaculture
producers in all target regions globally
– Commercial feed mills and poultry/swine
integrations are the main target audiences.
Dairy industry is also an interesting market in
selected countries.
Example
Projects:

Technical support to feed
manufacturers to increase
soy use and improve feed
quality

Feeding demonstrations in
aquaculture to show the
economic, environmental
and food safety
advantages of soy-based
feeds.

SBM sample analysis in
well-known universities
and research centers
mainly for Digestible
Amino Acids,
Metabolizable Energy and
Phosphorus, comparing
U.S. SBM with SBM from
other origins (Brazil,
Argentina and India).

Animal production courses
to increase technology at
integration/farm level.

India to reduce competition in markets where U.S. and
Indian soy compete.
• Target Audience:
– Aqua feed, production and processing
sectors to increase demand for high
quality aqua products produced with
soy-based feeds; objective is to reduce
India soy exports, particularly to SEA, as
a means to improve market
opportunities for U.S. soy in countries
like Vietnam
– Poultry and dairy industries to increase
the use of SBM in India; objective is to
reduce India soy exports.
Example
Projects:

Seminars, workshops and
feeding demonstrations
(aquaculture) to show the
advantages of feed-based
technologies, soy feeds,

integrations and dairy
producers promoting
better nutrition of the
animals through increased
use of SBM in the diets.
