Preface
Soybean is an agricultural crop of tremendous economic importance. Soybean and food
items derived from it form dietary components of numerous people, especially those
living in the Orient. The health benefi ts of soybean have att racted the att ention of nutri-
tionists as well as common people.
The literature on soybean research is voluminous. This prompted InTech Open Access
publisher to embark on this meaningful project of inviting eminent scientists in diff er-
ent arenas of soybean research to contribute articles in their areas of specialization.
Due to the explosion of knowledge, few people in one discipline of soybean research
are conversant with every other aspect of soybean research. Hence a compilation of the
soybean literature and sorting it under diff erent categories and distribution in separate
volumes would facilitate investigators and students to familiarize themselves with the
diverse areas of soybean research.
The section on technology encompasses topics like direct seeding of soybean, measures
to improve soybean production, weed competition in soybean crop management, ben-
efi ts of cover crops in soybean plantation, soybean processing for biodiesel production,
and the preparation of soluble dietary fi ber from soybean.
The section on applications includes phytosterol recovery from waste residues derived
from soybean oil, cellulolytic enzyme production from fermented soybean hulls, soy-
bean oil polymerization, soybean-based surfactants, and out-of-season production of
soybeans.
Each of the sections covers a wide range of topics and the authors are from diff erent
countries. This underscores the global signifi cance of soybean research.
I am convinced that readers of this book will fi nd the chapters informative and at the
same time of practical value.
