5 key reasons to choose soy

• 

  Low input requirements

  Soy is a cost-effective crop to grow, as it requires no nitrogen fertilizer thanks to its natural ability to fix nitrogen from the air. Additionally, it has minimal need for fungicides and insecticides, reducing input costs and simplifying crop management.

• 

  High economic potential

  With the growing demand for soy in Europe—especially for organic and non-GMO varieties—farmers can tap into a stable and profitable market. This rising demand makes soy an excellent choice for boosting farm income and diversifying income streams.

• 

  Great for soil health & crop rotation

  Soy doesn’t just benefit the farmer’s wallet—it also benefits the soil. By fixing nitrogen in the soil, it leaves behind residual nitrogen that enriches the land for subsequent crops. Additionally, soy disrupts weed cycles, lowers the risk of mycotoxin contamination in cereals, and helps reduce pressure from certain pests and diseases, making it an excellent addition to a crop rotation plan.

• 

  Contributing to regenerative agriculture

  As a legume, soy regenerates soils and contributes to carbon storage through increased organic matter, supporting regenerative agriculture practices.

• 

  Versatile use

  Soy is a multi-purpose crop, with uses ranging from food and animal feed to biodiesel and industrial products, promoting a circular economy by utilizing all parts of the plant.
