  • What percentage of soybean oil is biodiesel?
  • Biodiesel production accounts for an increasing share of soybean oil use in the United States, currently representing about 30% of domestic soybean oil disposition.
  • Which vegetable oil is used in biodiesel production?
  • Smaller amounts of vegetable oil for biodiesel production include distiller’s corn oil (an inedible oil that is produced as a byproduct of the corn ethanol production process) and canola oil. Soybean oil and distiller’s corn oil are widely used because the feedstocks are produced in the Midwest, where most biofuel production capacity exists.
  • Is soybean oil a biodiesel feedstock?
  • As total U.S. soybean oil supply grew between MY 2010–2011 and MY 2017–2018, from about 22.5 billion pounds to nearly 26.0 billion pounds, the share of total soybean oil consumed as a biodiesel feedstock doubled, from about 15% to 30%.
  • Can soybean oil be used as a biofuel?
  • Soybean oil and other vegetable oils may also be used as a feedstock for renewable diesel, a separate biofuel that is increasingly produced at stand-alone facilities and petroleum refineries. Between MY 2010–2011 and MY 2017–2018, domestic biodiesel production grew from 0.7 billion gallons to 1.8 billion gallons.
  • What is biodiesel based on?
  • Biodiesel is a mixture of chemical compounds known as alkyl esters produced from a variety of vegetable oils, fats, and greases. Vegetable oils comprise about three-fourths of total biodiesel feedstock in the United States, with soybean oil accounting for slightly more than half of total inputs by weight.
  • Are soybean oil futures heading towards a sub 80 cents per pound close?
  • Soybean oil futures appear to be heading toward a sub 80 cents per pound close this week. Prices are trending above the 14-day moving average and have been quite volatile in recent weeks. Soybean oil price support is seen at around 71 cents per pound, and prices could remain range-bound between 71 and 83 cents in the near term.
