A bushel is a unit of volume commonly used in the United States to measure dry agricultural commodities like soybeans. One bushel of soybeans is equivalent to 60 pounds or approximately 27.22 kilograms.
People in the news are like children, they know jack diddly about most things in life and are surprised by anything. Those soy reps could have done the detachable thumb trick and the reporter would have been shocked.
finding an alternative market is basically impossible for soybean, because most of them were used to feed pigs, and China consumes nearly half of total pork consumed annually in the world. After 2018, China shift the purchase to south America, causing Brazilian soybean export and production skyrocketing.
Let's not forget the amount of fuel that goes into growing and processing soybeans into fuel, making them less sustainable and renewable than they are marketed as...
everyone knows that, its just that subsidizing soy and corn keeps farmers happy. these are not small farmers from india or china. They own a lot a of land we cant even imagine. They have a lot of influence
I think the theoretical idea that biofuels is better is that the carbon is cycled through above ground and ideally no petroleum is extracted from mining. The problem is that extending the usability of machines and processes that rely on fuels means that those markets are still trying to grow which means that the world isn't mining less from the ground, only technically less than if they didn't add biofuels. You can't use 20% more fuel and say you're 10% greener because you have a 90-10 blend, you are still detrimental to GHG effect. A transition to renewables and sustainability means that drilling for oil and mining carbon from underground has to stop and in fact reverse to fix what has been done to our planet since the industrial revolution.

Brazil: "Hold my beer". The country invested heavily in technology and today has the highest yelds in the world. It's not only "because of China". Brazil also uses a lot of soy as animal food.
They did that because they had the china market to export to. It's not to diminish the great achievement by Brazil but, without china to sell to, investing so heavily to grow so much, wouldn't have been economicly viable.
Brazil really took advantage of the trade situation to scale up this important animal feedstock crop. Brazil is already one of the biggest meat exporters in the world and soybeans help vertically supplement that industry, because of high prices driven by demand from China. Of course that often comes at the expense of the Amazon rainforest. At 60% of world demand, China is the big swing customer. India doesn't consume much beef or pork for religious reasons both Hindu and Muslim, and chickens doesn't eat that much soybean vs. pigs and cows. And biodiesel isn't a price competitive alternative to fossil fuel without subsidies, and has to be mixed at a low ratio for current engines.

Blame it on the trade war against China started by Trump; it would have been a win win situation since China has a population of 1.4 billion, four times of the US!

They don't care, it's all about how much you can exploit the land today for a dollar. Then when it dries up they will look for more government handouts.
can you do a net positive energy production if you use fuel produced from soy to farm the soy in the first place? this sounds sketchy to use soy as a biofuel alternative. Same concept apply to subsidies, you can't be profitable if you can't produce what you consume.
That is capitalism. Energy is not meant to be efficient but rather to make profit. Also subsidies are an industry norm in the agriculture sector. Most farmers in the US would quit farming without a helping hand from Uncle Sam.
While the subject is interesting, CNBC’s presentation format is not. The show zig zags among many commentators that is disconcerting and irritating. It is difficult to concentrate.
As someone who gets migraines from the tiniest lick of soy, you can imagine it's been rough navigating the last four years as every food has been adding it in one at a time.
Yes, EVERYTHING has soybean oil as an ingredient now, and I'm allergic. Most mayonnaise today is basically just soybean oil and salt! I had to buy a vegan mayonnaise because it was the only kind which didn't have soybean oil!
Why does US pick a fight with the largest market for agriculture while the farmers were supporting the fight? Make you think that most farmers are not thinking clearly. Or maybe they are extremely smart because at the end of the day, the most cash comes in the mail through government handouts.
No idea but I think many US industries believe that insulting your customers is the best way to keep your customers. Looks at Disney, Gillette, Budweiser, etc. it’s not just China in this case.
you're assuming the farmers lead the trade war when that was mainly Trump, and he did so mainly for political rather than economic reasons. Even if Trumps actions went according to plan he'd mainly have helped American _manufacturing_ rather than farming, and that benefit would still have largely been at the expense of agriculture. Those subsidies werent profitable either, farmers planted the crops and then couldnt harvest them because it wouldnt have been profitable so the "government handouts" were more of a consolation for the loss of business which in this case makes sense since it was the government doing the damage, not the farmers.
they want to avoid having all their beans in one basket but they won't ever consider that you could fill the basket with something else. Diversification needs to happen from the demand side as well as the supply side. The analogy of the basket is also not limited to the consumer, the basket is also the producers portfolio or land if you will. You may be able to sell soybeans to someone else but if something happens and you lose all your soybeans or if nobody wants soybeans then you're out of luck unless the government bails you out.
But the government will bail them out. As the report said, Trump bailed out the farmers when China stopped buying soy. Perhaps if the farmers were allowed to get a bloody nose once in a while they'd be more keen on diversifying the crops they grow so they aren't as exposed to the bottom falling out of the market for one product.
@@MalcolmRose-l3b totally in agreement. I'm all for making sure people stay alive if some disaster happens to their source of income but buying out all their crops is excessive
They were saying that the average production went from 31 to 51 bushels but that’s it’s actually a lot more than that most of the time. That is impossible. The average is the average that means that if you take all of the output and divided by all of the acres that’s the average.of course if it was a median, she would be blatantly incorrect given the definition of the term, but the mean basically means that you could not have most of the observations, the drastically higher than the average.
I think she meant to say the 'typical' farmer will see production that averages 51 bushels per acre, but some farms do better than this. You point is taken, though: average means average.
Most of the time it can be higher when the alternative is typically zero production, in turn acting as an outlier that drastically pulls down the average - hopefully that makes sense
@@firesalamander100 Just for fun, I am posting an illustrative example: We can look at a sample of the five numbers 6, 6, 6, 4, and 3. The mean average of the numbers is 5. Most of the numbers (three out of five) are higher than the average.
What was the U.S rationale behind a trade war with china? Then subsidize those same farmers hurt by it? What was reason and subsequent outcome for this act?
Love that you conveniently forgot to mention the MOST important fact that bleached oils, protein byproducts, and modified sugars derived from Corn and Soy are some of the most harmful foods known to man. We're slowly killing ourselves and future generations by making them even cheaper than they already are. Support your organic grass-fed / pasture-raised farms and virgin olive / coconut oil producers. Healthy food is worth the price.
what waa not mentioned was that China also suffered a huge pork price spike that made it almost unaffordable, ration stamps were handed out. It's nor US lost or China won, both lost.
It is actually a very good source of non animal protein and calcium. Highly nutritious. It is just that Westerners don't know how to cook or consume it much but Asia, particular East Asia has a long history of consuming it. Now they want people to eat lab meat and insects. Given those, I would much rather eat soya beans!
We only planted soy bean in meaningful scale after China joined the WTO and became a market for US industrial agriculture. If we want to decouple/de-risk with China, then we should stop planting soy beans. Use the land to plant more valuable crops.
Well, no matter what crops, you can’t deny that China has the most (not any more ) population and the second largest economy to buy these crops. Can you find another alternative market for whatever crops America grows?
I try to avoid soy bean and any of its products as much as possible because over 90% are sprayed with pesticides. It’s not healthy and even harmful, but it’s cheap so they are used widely.
Soybean as a protein source provides all essential amino acids, one of the few plant-based sources to do so. It's the perfect replacement for meat if you want to lessen environmental impact.
It is crazy that intellect challenged people actually think soybeans are human food. Humans are DESIGNED to eat meat / fish / eggs and sometimes vegetables
Soil management seems a key factor. The international calculus in agriculture seems equally complex and essential compared to other equity markets. I would be interested to learn how (or if) advancements in Artificial Intelligence benefit international agriculture.

Wkwkwk tbh in Japan, soybean is as just as precious, the japanese consume tofu, natto, soy sauce, miso theyre staple of japanese cuisine and are made of soybean. 😂😂😂
China has over half the world's hog population and needs soybean meal (and corn) to feed those pigs, thus they import huge amounts of beans as animal feed.

A lot of confused people in the comments below. I'm surprised so many people don't know what a bushel is. In North America (the U.S. and Canada, unsure about Mexico) a bushel is a measure of volume. Technically, it is '8 US dry gallons', but it's known more commonly as 1.24 cubic feet. Remember, this is a measure of volume, not weight. A bushel of grain can vary in weight, but generally wheat would weigh about 60 lbs, soybeans 60 lbs, oats 32 lbs, barley 48 lbs. I think you'll gradually see the bushel disappear as metric measures are phased in. If you'd like to know more, see the Bushel entry at Wikipedia.
Curious what the price of meat would look like if we removed soybean subsidies and wether it would create a more competitive landscape for grass fed production.
Probably not a huge difference, in fact for cattle they only use soy the last three months before they get slaughtered to fatten them up. Otherwise they would be almost 100% grass fed.
Stigma ini sebenernya bukan hanya tertanam di Indonesia, tp jg di luar indonesia. Nama lain dari kedelai sendiri adalah "Poor man's meat". Well, sebagai orang yg bijaksana harusnya yg seperti itu bisa diabaikan. Karena banyak julukan baik untuk Soybean juga seperti "Wonder crop", "Boneless meat" dsb
The Midwest of the States is some of the best farmland in the world right up next to eastern Europe. One advantage the US has is a very large navigable river right next to all that farmland which makes transportation really cheap.

Interestingly, soybeans could face a major competitor, especially with the change in laws in recent years: non-THC infused hemp. Hemp could become a huge commodity for biofuels, and hemp fiber now has a lot more uses than before, especially as a cheaper alternative to resource-intensive manufactured carbon fiber. And hemp plants can grow in much wider climate conditions than soybeans.
So soybeans, a crop that is 97% used for meat production will face ''major competition'' from a crop mainly used for textiles? bruh been hitting the stoogie too hard again.
@@eriksvensson2098 Soybeans are now more and more used in biofuel production. Hemp can be used to make biofuel, and can grow in much wider climatic conditions than soybeans.

Yup! The stuff nearly killed me. I was bed ridden for three years and the docs couldn’t figure it out. Turns out, I randomly developed a soybean allergy.
My husband and I have been eating soy based products (tofu, veggie meat) for as long as I can remember. We have been 100% vegetarian for 51 years. We both have excellent health. I've never been to the ER, never been hospitalized, never had surgery. I'm 74. My husband is 75. We have no body pain anywhere in the body.
interesting. so this renewable diesel is 50% ethanol from soyabean and 50% diesel. Only soy based ethanol works for renewable diesel ? But as the economist said. Its not really cost effective or profitable without the subsidies.

Why does US pick a fight with the largest market for agriculture while the farmers were supporting the fight? Make you think that most farmers are not thinking clearly. Or maybe they are extremely smart because at the end of the day, the most cash comes in the mail through government handouts.
No idea but I think many US industries believe that insulting your customers is the best way to keep your customers. Looks at Disney, Gillette, Budweiser, etc. it’s not just China in this case.
Same do with Australia.
you're assuming the farmers lead the trade war when that was mainly Trump, and he did so mainly for political rather than economic reasons. Even if Trumps actions went according to plan he'd mainly have helped American _manufacturing_ rather than farming, and that benefit would still have largely been at the expense of agriculture. Those subsidies werent profitable either, farmers planted the crops and then couldnt harvest them because it wouldnt have been profitable so the "government handouts" were more of a consolation for the loss of business which in this case makes sense since it was the government doing the damage, not the farmers.

they want to avoid having all their beans in one basket but they won't ever consider that you could fill the basket with something else. Diversification needs to happen from the demand side as well as the supply side. The analogy of the basket is also not limited to the consumer, the basket is also the producers portfolio or land if you will. You may be able to sell soybeans to someone else but if something happens and you lose all your soybeans or if nobody wants soybeans then you're out of luck unless the government bails you out.
LOL, you underestimate farmers who are usually a step ahead.
But the government will bail them out. As the report said, Trump bailed out the farmers when China stopped buying soy. Perhaps if the farmers were allowed to get a bloody nose once in a while they'd be more keen on diversifying the crops they grow so they aren't as exposed to the bottom falling out of the market for one product.
@@MalcolmRose-l3b totally in agreement. I'm all for making sure people stay alive if some disaster happens to their source of income but buying out all their crops is excessive
@@MalcolmRose-l3b : Farmers already do that, only a fool would not know that.
Very few acres of continuous soybeans grown in the US unlike Brazil. Most farms have never gotten away from rotation except dryland wheat in the west
It’s funny these farmers will rail against the threat of communism or socialism but gladly accept government money for their failed crops.
They know if you have socialism for themselves they can have more socialism
More like hypocritical. Bunch of fair weather free marketers.
They were saying that the average production went from 31 to 51 bushels but that’s it’s actually a lot more than that most of the time. That is impossible. The average is the average that means that if you take all of the output and divided by all of the acres that’s the average.of course if it was a median, she would be blatantly incorrect given the definition of the term, but the mean basically means that you could not have most of the observations, the drastically higher than the average.
I think she meant to say the 'typical' farmer will see production that averages 51 bushels per acre, but some farms do better than this. You point is taken, though: average means average.
2:50. It is mathematically impossible to have your yield “most of times much higher” than the average.
Most of the time it can be higher when the alternative is typically zero production, in turn acting as an outlier that drastically pulls down the average - hopefully that makes sense
@@firesalamander100 Just for fun, I am posting an illustrative example: We can look at a sample of the five numbers 6, 6, 6, 4, and 3. The mean average of the numbers is 5. Most of the numbers (three out of five) are higher than the average.
It depends on if some very low yield years (maybe due to inclement weather) pull down the overall average.
If three of my farms average 66bpa and I have a farm average 25bpa all of a sudden my average is going to be a lot less than 66bpa per say.

Love that you conveniently forgot to mention the MOST important fact that bleached oils, protein byproducts, and modified sugars derived from Corn and Soy are some of the most harmful foods known to man. We're slowly killing ourselves and future generations by making them even cheaper than they already are.
Support your organic grass-fed / pasture-raised farms and virgin olive / coconut oil producers. Healthy food is worth the price.
4.3 billion soy bean bushels amount to 117 billion kilograms or 117 million tons of beans being exported in one year. That is crazy!
How much of the soybean farms are owned by the CCP Chinese companies?
Sounds like as Americans we tanked our own soy bean farmers and allowed Brazil to come in take up our marketshare.
That’s what happens with a trade war done on a whim without skilled planning.
And then Brazil, who China relied on to so us what for during said trade war, had a severe drought and couldn't meet demands, a good chuckle I say
what waa not mentioned was that China also suffered a huge pork price spike that made it almost unaffordable, ration stamps were handed out. It's nor US lost or China won, both lost.
you only have yourselves to blame, Yankee
@@xiphoid2011that pork price change in China was temporary… it went so low after that period, the price is normal now.
High protein, short growing season, lower inputs, they improve soil quality and easy to sell on the international market.
Corn and soy beans aren’t helpful when grown so much and monoculture. Need more veggies and hemp grown by farmers
They also destroy your health. Perfect for FDA profiteers. Make money on food sales, make money on sick people. Win, win for the elite.
And big business for agrotech companies ( GMO, herbicides, fertilizers ).

I remember being in school in the early 90's and people were going crazy for soybeans.
It is actually a very good source of non animal protein and calcium. Highly nutritious. It is just that Westerners don't know how to cook or consume it much but Asia, particular East Asia has a long history of consuming it. Now they want people to eat lab meat and insects. Given those, I would much rather eat soya beans!
Comment removed for no reason?😡
@s._3560 Soy has been shown to hurt male testosterone. Why consume it?
We only planted soy bean in meaningful scale after China joined the WTO and became a market for US industrial agriculture. If we want to decouple/de-risk with China, then we should stop planting soy beans. Use the land to plant more valuable crops.
Name one. Oh you can’t. Because Soy is a valuable crop. It’s just that American politics turned away American Soy industry’s biggest customer. 🤦♂️
More valuable crops greater manual input requiring more labor. Where in the US will you find more farm labor?
Well, no matter what crops, you can’t deny that China has the most (not any more ) population and the second largest economy to buy these crops. Can you find another alternative market for whatever crops America grows?
it gotta be valuable and also nitrogen the land back as soy do.
If it was valuable, soy wouldn’t have replaced it
I try to avoid soy bean and any of its products as much as possible because over 90% are sprayed with pesticides. It’s not healthy and even harmful, but it’s cheap so they are used widely.
Soybeans aren't even close to being the worst in terms of pesticide.
@@patrickbateman1660 They are still bad.
Only youre eating organic products whatever you ate is blenched in pestiside.
Wheat is the most dangerous!
It's not dangerous, but it is bad for the environment.
Soybean as a protein source provides all essential amino acids, one of the few plant-based sources to do so. It's the perfect replacement for meat if you want to lessen environmental impact.
lol
False, for one thing it's insufficient in methionine.
And false monocrop agriculture is 10 times worse than animal agriculture for the environment. Use your brain
It’s crazy how we could just farm food-grade soybeans instead of feed-grade and then be able to feed ourselves many times over
But any alternative to meat is literally COMMUNISM!
It is crazy that intellect challenged people actually think soybeans are human food. Humans are DESIGNED to eat meat / fish / eggs and sometimes vegetables

I'm kinda surprised people commented here refers soybean as animal feed. while where I'm come from, people know soybean as the ingredients of our staple food such as tofu and tempeh. 😂
Which is why you're all so effinate eating all that estrogen!
Wkwkwk tbh in Japan, soybean is as just as precious, the japanese consume tofu, natto, soy sauce, miso theyre staple of japanese cuisine and are made of soybean. 😂😂😂
China has over half the world's hog population and needs soybean meal (and corn) to feed those pigs, thus they import huge amounts of beans as animal feed.

Same. It’s in literally every packaged food.
A lot of confused people in the comments below. I'm surprised so many people don't know what a bushel is. In North America (the U.S. and Canada, unsure about Mexico) a bushel is a measure of volume. Technically, it is '8 US dry gallons', but it's known more commonly as 1.24 cubic feet. Remember, this is a measure of volume, not weight. A bushel of grain can vary in weight, but generally wheat would weigh about 60 lbs, soybeans 60 lbs, oats 32 lbs, barley 48 lbs. I think you'll gradually see the bushel disappear as metric measures are phased in. If you'd like to know more, see the Bushel entry at Wikipedia.
This is nothing compared to the size of US economy, obsession is really not the word.
True.
The US economy is as made up as the Chinese

No issue with subsidizing the agricultural industry here -- it's a very volatile industry and that keeps us FED.
Soybeans is the new gold rush. The market is huge.
what's the ratio of winners to losers from the old gold rush
Curious what the price of meat would look like if we removed soybean subsidies and wether it would create a more competitive landscape for grass fed production.
Probably not a huge difference, in fact for cattle they only use soy the last three months before they get slaughtered to fatten them up. Otherwise they would be almost 100% grass fed.
Kudos to Brazil
Stigma ini sebenernya bukan hanya tertanam di Indonesia, tp jg di luar indonesia. Nama lain dari kedelai sendiri adalah "Poor man's meat".

The farming and applications of soybeans are really disgraceful. A healthy bean is just getting tarnished, everyone thinks it's unhealthy food now.
Interestingly, soybeans could face a major competitor, especially with the change in laws in recent years: non-THC infused hemp. Hemp could become a huge commodity for biofuels, and hemp fiber now has a lot more uses than before, especially as a cheaper alternative to resource-intensive manufactured carbon fiber. And hemp plants can grow in much wider climate conditions than soybeans.
Soybeans are here to stay due to the soil benefits.
So soybeans, a crop that is 97% used for meat production will face ''major competition'' from a crop mainly used for textiles? bruh been hitting the stoogie too hard again.
Hemp will make Soybeans, meh 👀

Bushel is measuring volume not weight, hence the difference. That said, a bushel of soybeans weighs about 27.22 kilos.
