This is what is communicated by Consorzi Agrari d'Italia (CAI) which has released the data of the threshing that has now come to an end in the most productive areas of Italy. In 2021, soybean acreage rose to over 350,000 hectares, a marked increase from last year's nearly 320,000 hectares. L’aumento dei campi coltivati ha mitigato le rese molto basse che hanno portato la produzione a fermarsi a circa 1 milione di tonnellate di soia, in diminuzione del 5% rispetto al 2020. I prezzi, in media con gli altri cereali, sono in deciso rialzo (+54%), con l’ultima quotazione alla Borsa Merci di Bologna che si attesta intorno alle 595 euro/tonnellata, ben al di sopra delle 385 euro/tonnellata registrate lo scorso anno. Per coprire il fabbisogno nazionale, anche quest’anno il nostro Paese sarà costretto a importare specialmente semi e farine dall’estero, per un totale di almeno 3 milioni di tonnellate di prodotto. According to Consorzi Agrari d'Italia, about 80% of soy in Italy is destined for the production of oil and flours particularly suitable for animal feed, while the remaining 20% is used for food use (drinks, tofu, etc.).
