Introduction: China's soybean production is stagnant The increase of soybean consumption in China should have promoted the development of domestic production However, the international market price has seriously restricted the domestic market, so the market mechanism has not played a role, but has inhibited the development of production In recent 10 years, China's soybean production share in the world has been stagnant, and in recent years tends to decline In 1990, the global soybean output was 104.093 million tons, while that of China was 11 million tons, accounting for 10.6% of the world share In the past 10 years, China's output accounted for the highest share in the world, which was 13% in 1993 and 15.31 million tons Since 1993, although China's soybean output has fluctuated, its share of the world's total output has declined In 1997, the soybean output was 1472800 tons, the global output was 158066000 tons, China accounted for 9.3%, and it was lower than 10% for the first time in five years In 2000, the global soybean output was 172.247 million tons, while China's output was 15.4 million tons Although it was still at a high level, its share in the world was only 8.9% Since 1990, the global soybean output has increased by 70 million tons or so, and the soybean output of China has increased by 4 million tons or so, or 36% This shows that China's soybean industry is going downhill in the fierce international market competition Table 5: China's share of soybean production in the world tends to decline unit: 10000 tons of k5u year 1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 World output 10409.3 10729.8 11738 11776.7 13769.6 12491.5 China's output: 1100 971 1030 1531 1600 1350, accounting for 10.6 9 8.8 13 11.6 10.8 years 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 world production 13221.7 15806.6 15980.7 15970.8 17242.7 China production 1322 1472.8 1515.2 1429 1549 It accounts for 10.9.3.9.5.11.8.9% of the world's total soybean production The United States, Brazil and Argentina are growing synchronously in competition, while China is stagnant In 1999, the total output of soybeans in the world was 15970.8 million tons, in 2000 it was 172.42.7 million tons, and it is expected to be 172.43 million tons in 2001 The United States is still the world's largest producer Its output has increased from 72 million tons in 1999 to nearly 80 million tons, about 4 million tons more than the total of Brazil, Argentina and China Table 6: soybean export volume and output of the United States in the past 10 years unit: kiloton, k5u year 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 52416 54065 59612 50885 68444 59174 64780 73176 74598 72224 75378 export volume 15161 18614 20972 16006 22867 23108 24110 23760 218982649227080 Brazil is the second soybean producing country in the world In recent 10 years, Brazil's soybean production has made rapid progress In 1990, Brazil's soybean production was 15.75 million tons, which is equivalent to the production level of China in the previous years Under the situation of rapid growth of global soybean consumption, Brazil has formulated a plan to promote the development of domestic soybean industry In the 1990s, Brazil's soybean production grew rapidly In 1991, the output was 19.3 million tons, an increase of more than 3 million tons over the previous year Since then, Brazil's annual soybean output has increased by 2-3 million tons over the previous year Brazil's soybean production reached 37.5 million tons in 2000, 2.5 times that of 1990 It is expected that soybean production in Brazil will continue to grow at a high speed in the next few years, because Brazil has a great potential for land resources and good climate conditions For a long time, the soybean yield of k5u Argentina ranked fourth in the world, slightly lower than that of China Since 1990, Argentina's soybean production has developed rapidly, and now it is in the third place in the world, far exceeding the output of China In 1990, the soybean output of Argentina was 11.5 million tons Until 1996, the soybean output of Argentina was still lower than that of China In 1997, Argentina's soybean output reached 19.5 million tons, more than 4.7 million tons in China; in 2000, Argentina's soybean output reached 26 million tons, more than 10 million tons in China Argentina's soybean exports also increased significantly with the increase of production In 2000, Argentina's soybean exports exceeded 6 million tons K5u
