Soybean is one of the important grain and oil crops in our country. Because of its high nutritional value, especially its protein content being higher than that of pork and eggs, and its role in lowering cholesterol, it is deeply loved by everyone. However, in recent years, the issues of toxicity and safety hazards of genetically modified soybeans have always been controversial. So how much is soybean price per jin? How to identify genetically modified soybeans?

1. How much is soybean price per jin?

Soybean market prices are not fixed. Because factors such as place of origin, yield, place of sale, quality and demand differ, soybean prices also vary. Secondly, changes in national policies in the past two years have also had a certain impact on soybean prices. The most important manifestation is the increase in tariffs, which has caused recent soybean market prices to show a certain upward trend. But under normal circumstances, soybean market prices are basically around 1.5-2 yuan per jin. In addition, in the Heilongjiang region, soybean prices are generally around 1.7-1.8 yuan per jin, while in the Henan region soybean prices are around 2 yuan per jin, in the Inner Mongolia region around 1.7 yuan per jin, and in Rizhao, Shandong, soybean prices are around 2.4-2.7 yuan per jin, but in Linyi, Shandong, they are only around 1.7-1.9 yuan per jin.

Soybean cultivation investment is relatively low, and soybean cultivation is also a crop that is easy to manage and offers quick returns. In recent years, the soybean market has also remained on a relatively stable trend. With the improvement of people's living standards, many families have a greater demand for vegetable oil, while lard has gradually decreased in people's lives, so the demand for soybeans has also become greater. Although there are many substitutes for vegetable oil, such as corn, peanuts and rapeseed, all of which are raw materials for vegetable oil, the demand for soybeans has not decreased. In addition, many soybean-related processed food industries have appeared on the market at the same time, further expanding its use value, and the market situation is getting better and better.

2. How to identify genetically modified soybeans?

First, from the shape, non-genetically modified soybeans are oval and somewhat flat, while genetically modified soybeans are round and very plump. Then, from the color and size, the hilum of non-genetically modified soybeans is light brown, and non-genetically modified soybeans are not all the same size, while the hilum of genetically modified soybeans is yellow or yellowish brown, and the soybeans are all about the same size. Then, from the soy milk, the soy milk made from non-genetically modified soybeans is milky white, while the soy milk made from genetically modified soybeans is somewhat yellow. Next, from the bean sprouts, if soybeans are soaked in water for three days, genetically modified soybeans will not sprout and will only expand in size, while non-genetically modified soybeans can basically be seen to grow sprouts. Finally, from insect damage, genetically modified soybeans have been modified with insect-resistant and pesticide-resistant genes, so genetically modified soybeans usually have a neat appearance and almost no traces of insect damage can be seen, while non-genetically modified soybeans are prone to insect infestation if not stored properly.

Summary: The above is the relevant introduction to soybean prices and methods for identifying genetically modified soybeans. Please note that the above soybean prices are for reference only, and the specific prices should be based on actual prices. I hope it is helpful to friends in need!
