The rise in demand for specialty soybean products has continued in recent years with consumers in niche markets driving demand for soybean based products.

Specialty output trait soybeans have allowed for soybeans to be used in a variety of ways in the production of food. Soybeans are not just crushed and used to make into soybean meal which is then processed for food. There are now many ways that they can be incorporated into food products.

Jeff Johnson, President at Benson Hill Seeds, says that his company is helping to provide more opportunities for growers to tap into these specialty soybean markets.

Specialty output trait soybeans can be used in products for people with plant based diets or diet restrictions with soybeans providing key proteins. Johnson says these types of soybeans can be a more valuable crop for producers.

Johnson says Benson Hill can help farmers to understand the differences in these specialty soybeans and how they can produce high amounts of protein for food production.
