  • Is soybean poised to dominate crop production in Africa?
  • Lam, H. M. (2018). Modelling predicts that soybean is poised to dominate crop production across Africa. Plant, Cell & Environment. Worldwide University Network (WUN). Garrett, R. D., Lambin, E. F., & Naylor, R. L. (2013). Land institutions and supply chain configurations as determinants of soybean planted area and yields in Brazil.
  • 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.
  • Is soybean a non-staple crop in Africa?
  • Even though, soybean ( Glycine max (L.) Merr.) is one of the most feasible legumes in the prevailing climates in Africa, the crop is a non-native and non-staple crop in SSA. Although it is a non-staple crop in Africa, it has the potential to become a commercial crop owing to its wide range of uses as food, feed, and industrial raw material.
  • Could soybean production be the bedrock of Africa’s food supply?
  • Moreover, in rotation with cereals such as maize and sorghum, soybean production has the potential to provide the bedrock of food and feed supply across Africa.
  • 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 ).
  • Why is the demand for soybean increasing in Africa?
  • The ever-increasing demand for soybean in Africa saw an increase in the land dedicated to soybean cultivation in 2016 exceeding 1.5 million hectares. The development of new rust‐resistant varieties and high‐yielding lines that have adapted to production in African climates now faces a sellers’ market.
