Palm oil, an edible but
highly saturated oil, is
produced in Malaysia and
other tropical countries. Due
to its low price, imports by
the United States have
grown rapidly in recent
years and are expected to
reach an annual level of one
billion pounds by 1980.
“This new program will
initially be funded entirely
by U.S. soybean growers
through their state soybean
checkoff programs,’’says

Minn. “Eventually we hope
to fund certain projects
jointly with firms that
produce soy oil products, as
we have done in our overseas
programs.”
The ASA Market
evelopment Foundation,
which must approve funding
for ASA programs, has
allocated $55,500 in grower
funds to cover the initial six
months of the project. The
association hopes to build the
program to the $1.5 million
level within three years if
adequate funding is
available, according to
Michaelson.
“This won’t be any flashy
advertising campaign,” he
sayd. “In fact, the first stage
of the program will be the
very modest - -gathering and
disseminating information,
building a rapport with the
trade and doing market
research. Basically, it will
be a trade servicing activity.
“Farther down the road,
we are planning such ac
tivities as getting experts to
write articles on technical
and nutritional aspects of
soy oil, developing a general
information leaflet on soy
oil, and sponsoring exhibits

Even though soy oil is the
most widely used edible oil in
the United States,
-Michaelson says most
American consumers are
unfamiliar with it.
“A major part of our
program will be to build an
image for soy oil,” he says.
“The American consumer
should know that soy oil has
all the qualities of a
premium oil - including a
high level of polyun
saturation- - without the
premium price.”
Michaelson says a new
Food and Drug Ad
ministration labeling
regulation, which will go into
effect next January, will aid
the soy oil identity program
by telling comsumers the
source of the oils contained
in food products. Present
regulations allow use of all
inclusive terms such as
vegetable oil and vegetable
shortening, which not tell the
comsumer if he is getting
highly saturated palm oil or
polyunsaturated soy oil.
Palm oil’s impact on the
U.S. soy oil market so far has
been mainly in shortening
