As poultry genetics continue to advance, birds are growing faster and converting feed more efficiently than ever before. Soybean meal remains the foundation of poultry diets worldwide, supplying essential amino acids and energy. Yet not all soybean meal delivers the same nutritional value.

One key finding is the energy contribution of high-quality soybean meal. Research shows that U.S. Soy delivers 93.8% lysine digestibility and 2,400 kcal/kg metabolizable energy.

Variability in soybean meal from other origins often forces nutritionists to apply safety margins. Those margins come at a measurable cost. Commercial trials show broilers fed soybean meal derived from U.S. Soy diets grow 4.2% faster with 3% better feed conversion rate.
