Soya Beans - Zambia Seed Company Limited (Zamseed)
Soya beans. 1.0 Introduction Soybean. (Glycine max L.) belongs to the family Leguminosae. It is a short-day crop, which requires short days for owering. The crop is one of the most important sources of oil and protein and is commonly used in both human and animal diets. Soybeans contain approximately 40% protein and 20% oil on a dry matter
ENHANCED SMALLHOLDER AGRiBUSiNESS PROMOTiON PROGRAMME SOYA BEANS PRODUCTiON MANUAL 1 1. INTRODUCTION Soybean (Glycine max) is an important food legume crop cultivated widely in Zambia at both large and small-scale levels. Soybean is the richest in terms of concentration and protein content among food legumes. Soya bean are also rich in oil.
Growing Soya Beans in Zambia
On average most Zambian farmers harvest between 2-tons to 4-tons of soya beans per hectare. ie 2000kg to 4000kg per hectare. The total production cost per hectare is approximately K4000 to K6000. Therefore, if a 50kg bag is selling for about k350 – k600 and if you had a 2-ton yield per hectare, you would make approximately between K14000
Zambia produced 112,000 tons of soya beans in 2010 and processed 90,000 tons in the same year (TBSP, 2010). Zambia is largely self-sufficient in soya beans production. According to TBSP (2010), 85% of the supply of soya beans comes from commercial farmers, characterized by high use of inputs, use of irrigation and relatively high yields of over

Analysis of the soya bean value chain in Zambia's Eastern Province
Compared to other crops soya beans are the most preferred crops in Zambia. Nevertheless, farmers often sell just 70% of the harvested soya beans and prefer to keep 30% as seed for the next
On the other hand, there are some challenges which affect soya production such as poor soils aggravated by low fertilizer use, poorly developed agricultural advisory services and farmers’ inability to access favourable input and outputs markets. Moreover, farmers predominantly find improved soya seeds expensive.

production and nodulation. It is tolerant and/or resistant to purple seed stain, common soybean fly, thrips, pod-sucking bug, and the pod borer. Gondwe envisions that the release of these two IITA-developed varieties will boost the availability of soybean seeds in Zambia. She is also optimistic that with the adoption of these varieties by
The study, conducted in central Zambia was aimed at determining the major drivers of crop production choices among smallholder farmers. It utilized recent national crop production and utilization data; 200 semi-structured interview schedules, and key informant interviews conducted with smallholder farmers and experts from the agricultural sector in Zambia respectively.
- Is Soya a profitable crop in Zambia?
- Abstract: The soya bean production opens doors of opportunities for Zambian farmers. Notably, the climate in Zambia is largely favourable for soya production and the arable land is vast enough to accommodate future expansion. Most importantly, soya is a very profitable crop.
- Is Zambia self-sufficient in soya bean production?
- Zambia is largely self-sufficient in soya bean production. According to TBSP (2010), 85% of the supply of soya comes from commercial farmers, characterized by high use of inputs, use of irrigation and relatively high yields of over 2.9 tons per hectare. He further pointed out that only 2% of soya beans supply in 2010 came from imports (TBSP, 2010).
- How does rainfall affect soya bean production in Zambia?
- Although the amount of rainfall in most areas of Zambia is adequate to support soya bean production, it is the distribution which is most critical. Soya bean yields are adversely afected when moisture is limiting during the reproductive stage.
- How much does it cost to grow soya beans in Zambia?
- Let¡¯s start with some numbers. On average most Zambian farmers harvest between 2-tons to 4-tons of soya beans per hectare. ie 2000kg to 4000kg per hectare. The total production cost per hectare is approximately K4000 to K6000.
