Market Overview

Soy protein is the protein that is obtained from soybeans, which are a legume that originated in East Asia. It is a protein that is considered complete because it has all the necessary amino acids needed by the human body. Soy protein is often used as a plant-based substitute for animal-based proteins and can be found in many food products such as meat alternatives, dairy substitutes, baked goods, and nutritional supplements. It provides various health advantages, like aiding in muscle development, supplying necessary nutrients, and promoting heart well-being. Soy protein is a common option for people who adhere to vegetarian, vegan, or flexitarian diets. Producers are always seeking new protein sources that are high in quality, affordable, and suitable for labeling, leading to the expansion of soy protein. Soybean meal serves as the primary source of protein and amino acids in formulating animal feed in the area. Soy protein powders offer nutritional and functional advantages in various animal foods, including companion animals, calf milk substitutes, young animal feed, and aquaculture diets. It is particularly appropriate for liquid and dry food situations that necessitate low antigenicity and easy digestibility.
