After harvesting, soy is used as a base for various products.

Soy is the main crop of Brazilian agribusiness, with the country occupying the first place in the ranking of largest producer and exporter of grain in the world.

According to information released by Syngenta, the superior results in productivity are due to several factors, such as favorable weather conditions, good agricultural practices and proper management during all stages of crop development, in which the use of fungicide for soybean has important role. But what you don't know is that soy faces great challenges in the field and can also be applied in unusual cases in the market.

Soybeans: many challenges, many applications
The challenges on the field are countless, and every day producers face serious problems that can put months' work to waste. An example is diseases, caused by microorganisms such as fungi, which can severely attack the crop, compromising a good part of the quality of the grains and directly impacting the profitability of the crop.

In this case, the crop protection product market has evolved and today has cutting edge technologies in soy fungicide which, applied at the right time, under the guidance of a technician and at the doses recommended by the package insert, can not only protect the plants, but also contribute to the crop's maximum productive potential.

With high productivity rates, post-harvest soy beans are destined for commercialization and, in most cases, serve as a basis for food, animal feed and vegetable oil. However, there are several lesser-known applications for soy. Check out some of them below.

Tires
Automakers aren't the only fans of soy beans! Tire manufacturers use the oil as a kind of additive for latex, which ensures more elasticity to the product and greater capacity to withstand intense climates.

Fuel
Biofuels are increasingly gaining market share as a sustainable source of supply instead of oil. And given a fact as important as this, it is clear that soy could not be left out as a raw material and with surprising numbers: around 80% of the biofuel produced in Brazil is made with soy harvested from our crops.

Chalk, Candles and Paints
All together and mixed up! These three products use tons of soy in their manufacture and, therefore, maintain a much more environmentally friendly production compared to traditional methods.

Did you just see how rich Brazilian agriculture is? It not only provides the food needed to sustain an entire world chain, but also brings cultures that can be used as raw material in other applications in our daily lives, through more sustainable methods that avoid the degradation of natural resources.
