The soybean checkoff is working with a number of companies and industry users to incorporate soy into their operations whenever viable opportunities exist. The high costs of petroleum have made soy products even more appealing.

Current and potential new uses for soy include: plastics, lubricants, coatings, printing inks, adhesives and solvents. Plastics are currently being researched by Ford Motor Company and may be incorporated into automobile interiors in the future. The federal government purchases over $250 billion in goods and services each year, and farm bill legislation will help drive the use of soy-based products in those purchases.
