SOY CONSUMPTION

Posted on November 13, 2014 by The VRG Blog Editor

According to a United Soybean Board survey,

  • 74% of the U.S. population eats soyfoods or soy beverages.
  • 31% consume soyfoods or beverages once or more per week.
  • 71% say products containing ingredients derived through biotechnology should be labeled.
  • Two percent cite GMO as a barrier for eating soy.

The United Soybean Board conducted this survey using an independent
research firm in February, 2014. It included 1,000 random surveys. The
study’s margin of error is plus or minus 1.9-3.1 percent, with a confidence level of 95 percent. Seventy-farmer directors of the United Soybean Board oversee the
investments of the soy checkoff to maximize opportunities for all U.S. soybean farmers.
