Overview of the global soymeal market
Market research analysts at Technavio predict that the global soymeal market will grow steadily at a CAGR of over 6% by 2021. This market research analysis identifies the rising urbanization and changing consumer lifestyles as the primary growth factors for this market.

Additionally, the large-scale adoption of meat alternatives, dairy-free products, and organically produced products across the world also increases the demand for soymeal.
