Soybean (Glycine max) is a leguminous crop valued worldwide for its rich protein and oil content. It is an essential agricultural commodity used extensively in food, animal feed, and industrial applications. India is a significant producer of non-GMO soybeans, and global demand is rising due to the shift toward plant-based proteins and sustainable food sources.
