  • Are SSA countries self-reliant in soy oil production?
  • We found that a 50% increase in soybean production in 2017 resulted in 426 000 MT of extra soybean and 76 000 MT of oil1 in the five SSA countries (Ethiopia, Ghana, Mali, Nigeria, and Uganda), making them self-reliant in soy oil production. For example, in 2017, Mali import 0.71 thousand MT of soy oil.
  • Does increasing soybean productivity in Sub-Saharan Africa affect small farmers?
  • Therefore, increasing soybean productivity in sub-Saharan Africa may substantially affect the welfare of the small farmers. However, it depends on how quickly the SSA countries generate sufficient demand for soy oil and animal feed.
  • What is the average soybean yield in Africa?
  • Like other agricultural commodities, soybean yields in African countries are substantially lower than in developed countries. The average yield of soybean in Ethiopia from 1993 to 2017 was 1.21 MT per hectare, while in Mali, Uganda and Nigeria it was 1.21, 1.28 and 0.94 MT respectively in the period from 1990 to 2017.
  • Does soybean production increase trade and land use in SSA countries?
  • Increasing soybean productivity can meet the growing demand for food and feed when complemented with higher soy meal demand by the local livestock industry. This study performs an ex-ante economic analysis to determine the effect of higher soybean production on trade and land use within SSA countries.
