Quality A Concern
Soybean Harvest Begins
As
ST. LOUIS. Mo. U.S. soy
bean fanners are reporting price
discounts as high as $2 per bushel
on early sales of 1988 drought
damaged soybeans. Some fanners
report buyers are rejecting soy
beans of exceptionally poor
quality.
The recently enacted 1988
drought relief legislation gives
USDA discretionary authority to
provide “additional disaster pay
ments to producers of such crops
that suffer losses resulting from the
reduced quality of such crops
caused by drought”.
A spokesman for U.S. Secretary
of Agriculture Richard Lyng told
the American Soybean Associa
tion (ASA) the Secretary may not
use his discretionary authority to
make payments based on poor soy
bean quality.
In a letter today, ASA President
James Lee Adams urged Secretary
Lyng to act quickly to exercise his
authority and provide soybean far
mers disaster payments based on
soybean quality at harvest.
“Damage discounts can be just
as devastating as the loss of pro
duction,” says Adams. “Farmers
who have drought loss are hurt a
second time when quality dis
counts are imposed. We intend to
aggressively pursue this issue in
weeks ahead.”
Jim Guinn, ASA technical
director of soybean quality, says
reports of poor quality are of great
concern, not only because of finan
cial hardship to affected farmers,
but also because of the impact on
customers. In the current competi
tive environment, he says a poor
quality crop could encourage cus
tomers to turn to alternative veget
able oil sources.
Guinn recommends that where
drought is a problem, farmers take
a sample of beans to their buyer for
analysis before delivering full
loads.
“In fact,” says Guinn, “farmers
in drought areas would be wise to

carefully evaluate both quality and
yield before deciding whether to
proceed with harvest. It may not be
economical to harvest some of
these drought damaged beans.”
“Farmers who do harvest
drought damaged beans have some
options,” says Guinn. “Livestock
producers can produce damaged
soybeans for on-farm use. Soy
bean Association funded universi
ty studies have proven that heat
processed whole soybeans (even
when weather damaged) are very
effective in livestock and poultry
rations. Spending a little time com
paring the cost of on-farm use of
full-fat soybeans versus delivering
the crop and taking a discount,
could make money for soybean
farmers this year.”
Guinn says this year’s drought
apparently caused soybean plants
to die off before the beans were
fully mature. The result is a bean
that may look normal on the out
side, but is visibly green on the
inside.
“This causes real problems for
processors, because the high chlor
ophyll content produces a green oil
which requires more process
ing,” says Guinn. “In addition, the
drought damaged beans have a
higher level of free fatty acids,
resulting in increased processing
losses.”
Guinn says ASA is working
closely with the Federal Grain
Inspection Service (FGIS) to
monitor areas where quality prob
lems seem the greatest. He notes
that over half of the U.S. soybean
crop is exported and the quality
needs of foreign customers are
especially important in the current
competitive oilseed market.
He cautions farmers against
storing this year’s drought
damaged soybeans. “The old say
ing ‘don’t store a short crop’ is
more than just economic advice
based on supply and demand,”
says Guinn. “Poor quality soy
beans don’t store well.”
