Sustainability Takeaways
• More consumers are citing sustainability as an important factor in purchasing decisions.
• Despite this fact, consumers are split on whether they’d pay more for sustainably produced products.
• Conserving natural habitats and reducing pesticides are the most important aspects of sustainable production.
• Reducing food waste and carbon footprint are less important.
• Food production considerations are more important in the grocery store than at restaurants.

Views from the Farm:Insights about Soy’s Sustainability
IFT 2016
Presented by Josiah McClellan
ABOUT THE UNITED SOYBEAN BOARD
• Led by 70 soybean Farmer-Directors
• Directs funds from the soy checkoff, which is supported entirely by U.S. soybean farmers
• Invests in research, marketing and communication programs to expand market
U.S.-GROWN SOYBEANS
• Soybeans are grown in 31 states
• 82.5 million acres planted in 2016
THE SUSTAINABILITY OF SOY
• 97% of U.S. farms are family owned 1
• Soybeans are an inherently sustainable crop, offering environmental and agronomic benefits
BENEFITS OF U.S.-GROWN SOYBEANS
• U.S.-grown soybeans result in:
• Shorter supply chain for the food industry
• Reduced transportation costs
• Lower carbon footprint
• Regulations at the national, state and local levels• Environmental regulations• Health and safety
• Food safety• Worker safety
• Voluntary conservation programs• More than $1 billion NRCS funding• Public/private partnerships
• Best practices inside the farm gate• Best practice adoption rates• Regional customization
U.S. SOY SUSTAINABILITY ASSURANCE PROTOCOL
TRACKING SUSTAINABILITY
• Monitoring and reporting sustainability performance• Annual tracking of conservation outcomes• Aligned with USDA sustainability goals
• Life cycle assessment • Soybean meal and oil
• No additional cost• Compatible with all supply chains• Quantifying sustainability performance that comes with commodity
soybeans
BIOTECHNOLOGY AND CONSERVATION TILLAGE Conservation Tillage Benefits2
• Cropland erosion reduced from 2.78 (1982) to 1.56 billion tonnes/yr (2007)
• Wind erosion reduced by 90% with 60% residue cover
• Clearing cropland sediments from waterways and reservoirs can cost $6 billion annually due to erosion
IMPROVING AGRICULTURE’S CARBON FOOTPRINT
• Carbon sequestration in no-till soils effectively reduces atmospheric CO2
• 6.6 million ha of continuous no-till sequesters 8.8 million tonnes of CO2 annually
• Reduced fuel consumption through reduced field passes
• No-till saves 36.5L/ha fuel compared to moldboard plowing
• Soy’s domestic growing area: key part of its sustainability
• Consumers claim sustainability and domestic sourcing influence purchase behavior
• Soybean oil and soy-based product case studies affirm this influence
CONSUMER PRIORITIES PUT TO THE TEST
USB 100% SOYBEAN OIL LABELING PROGRAMS
• Launched in 2012
• Aims to move the food industry toward labeling vegetable oil as soybean oil
• Two retail partnership phases• Vegetable oil labeled as
100% soybean oil• U.S. grown
LABELING INSIGHTS
• 100% of bottlers would consider changing to a “100% Soybean Oil” label with persuasive consumer demand3
• Only 4% of shoppers are aware that most vegetable oil is 100% soybean oil4
• Just 1% of shoppers are aware that most soybean oil is made with U.S.-grown soybeans4
83% of shoppers said that knowing most vegetable oil is U.S.-grown 100% soybean oil will influence their future cooking oil
purchase*
*As determined by a post-promotion consumer survey conducted by Schnucks
USB partnered with a large Midwest grocery retailer (230+ locations) who promoted its vegetable oil as “U.S.-Grown 100% Soybean Oil”
Campaign Elements • In-store advertising (shelf talkers,
bottle neckers and aisle blades) • Shopper education (in-store food
sampling demos)
USB 2015 CASE STUDY – PRIVATE LABEL VEGETABLE OIL
• 27% unit sales increase;
• 15 stores saw more than a 100% increase5
PRIVATE LABEL VEGETABLE OILSALES RESULTS
SHOPPER FEEDBACK
• 87% of consumers said they are more likely to purchase U.S.-grown 100% soybean oil after learning the health benefits6
• When asked which messaging has the most impact on future purchase, health benefit information (73%), sustainably grown (64%) and U.S. grown (54%) were listed6
USB 2015 CASE STUDY –PACKAGED FOODS
USB partnered with a global consumer goods company who called out “U.S.-Grown 100% Soybean Oil” as an ingredient in its mayonnaise
Campaign Elements • In-store advertising (shelf tags,
bottle neckers and aisle blades)• Recipe Cards
PACKAGED FOODS SALES RESULTS • 7.7% sales increase as a result of
ingredient promotion7
• 58% of consumers influenced by knowing that mayonnaise is made from U.S.-grown soybeans8
