Basic Introduction to Jiuyi Soybean

Soybean is a traditional dry grain crop in Ningyuan. For a long time, the planting area has remained stable at 15000-25000 mu. In recent years, due to people's attention to plant protein, the consumption of soy products such as tofu and soy milk has rapidly increased, and the market demand for soybean has expanded. Farmers' enthusiasm for planting soybean has increased, and the planting area of soybean has rapidly increased. In 2004, the soybean planting area in Ningyuan County is expected to exceed 60000 mu, with a yield of over 7.5 million kilograms.

The main soybean production in Ningyuan is large soybeans, with traditional varieties such as Spring Equinox beans, May Yellow, E Bean No. 4, and Cuifan introduced from Dangyang, Hubei in 2004, under the trade name "Jiuyi Soybean". The protein content of "Jiuyi soybeans" is high, especially suitable for tofu processing. Therefore, "Jiuyi soybeans" are mainly used locally and sold to Guangdong as raw materials for tofu processing. The annual consumption of tofu processing in Ningyuan alone is around 4 million kilograms, and it is sold to Guangdong at around 2 million kilograms. The cultivation of large soybeans in Ningyuan is mainly based on dry soil, supplemented by rice field embankments. In recent years, due to the good benefits of soybean cultivation, some farmers have started to use rice fields for cultivation in conjunction with rice field restructuring, promoting the development of the soybean industry. In order to improve the industrialization level of soybeans, the Ningyuan County Committee and Government also took advantage of the situation and established production bases on both sides of the road from Shunling to Heting, Taiping, Lengshui, and Shunling in the traditional dry grain area, forming a soybean industry belt of nearly 20000 acres.
