Abstract:
The portfolio model of hedging framework, based off Markowitz (1952), is used to determine the best mix of futures, basis, and option contracts to hedge a soybean purchase from PNW 28 weeks in to the future. Eighteen options are incorporated including in-the-money, at-the-money, and out-of-the-money call and puts with different expiration dates. Futures and option pricing data is extracted from ProphetX from November of 2013 to December of 2016. Expected utility objectives including mean-variance, CVaR, Mean-CVaR, and Mean-CVaR with copula are maximized using linear programming optimization methods. A two stage model is built to simulate hedging scenarios while measuring various statistics. Under high risk aversion, a standard futures hedge performs the best. Buyers with lower risk aversion should explore option strategies. In-the-money calls, collars, strangles, and short butterfly strategies all perform well.

Abstract:
Soybean is amongst the most crucial field crops in South Africa. Although the local soybean industry is still in its infancy, it is an important growing sector of South Africa’s agricultural economy. The soybean industry’s contribution in terms of gross value of production, at over R5 billion (in 2014/15) out of R225 billion (in 2014/15) for the entire agriculture industry, may seem insignificant but it is very important. This is not only in terms of the industry’s contribution towards the gross value of the entire production in agriculture, but also in terms of its contribution towards value addition by soybean products. The key aspect of the importance of soybean relates to the fact that the majority of soybeans are consumed in the processed/value-added form, and very little is consumed in primary form. There are various sectors of the economy, such as agricultural inputs (paints, lubricants, animal feedstuffs, etc.), that benefit directly from the supply of the processed soybeans. The increasing importance of soybeans in the domestic market is illustrated by the hectares (ha) set aside for the production of the crop over a period of time. Despite the steady increase in the production of soybeans in recent years, the South African soybean industry has not been able to meet the local soybean demand from the animal feed manufacturing, industrial and human consumption sectors. By analysing the South African soybean industry, key weaknesses and threats in the value chain can be identified. Addressing these will further strengthen the competitiveness of the local soybean value chain. This study gives an overview of the soybean industry, at both global and domestic levels. The overview of the industry is followed by a competitive advantage analysis of the South African, together with the Argentine and Brazilian, soybean value chains. The Relative Revealed Comparative Trade Advantage (RTA) index is applied to calculate the competitive advantages of the domestic soybean industry, together with those of its southern hemisphere competitors. The results reveal that the South African soybean in the primary form, has a marginal competitive advantage. Furthermore, the value-added soybean products display a competitive disadvantage. At the same time, both Argentinian and Brazilian soybean value chains have a competitive advantage. The conclusion that the domestic soybean industry is slightly competitive only in the primary soybean sector, while both the Argentina and Brazil soybean industries are competitive through the entire value chain, was calculated from World Integrated Trade Solutions (WITS) trade data. The elements behind the competitiveness of the soybean industry were identified. These elements were identified to explain the underlying reasons behind the competitive disadvantage experienced by the South African soybean products. It was established in the analysis that utilisation rates have remained below average as a result of the technical challenges in a number of newly established factories, as well as a shortage in supply of soybeans by the local industry. All that is currently lacking is sufficient production to match the processing capacity. Although soybean production has grown tremendously over a period of time, it will take a while to match the crushing capacity.

O extrato hidrossolúvel de soja-EHS (“leite de soja”) é considerado uma bebida importante devido as suas características funcionais. No entanto, a bebida sofre restrições sensoriais pela população ocidental, devido ao sabor adstringente resultante da ação da enzima lipoxigenase (LOX) ativada no processo de extração. O objetivo dessa pesquisa foi estudar o efeito de tratamentos físicos e antioxidantes sobre a atividade da LOX em EHS de diferentes cultivares de soja. Para este estudo utilizou-se tratamentos físicos (Irradiação e Térmico) e antioxidantes (Tocoferol e TBHQ) visando à inativação da LOX (fase 1). A partir da seleção dos melhores tratamentos desta fase, foram conduzidos novos ensaios associando-se tratamentos físicos ao tratamento antioxidante (fase 2). Para acompanhar os resultados da atividade enzimática nos grãos de soja e no EHS (controle), foram realizadas as concentrações centesimais de umidade, proteína, lipídios, cinzas, fibra-bruta, carboidratos, minerais e valor energético. Nos EHS produzidos na fase 1 analisou-se o teor de proteína e atividade específica de LOX. Nos grãos irradiados e no EHS produzido na fase 2 determinou-se a composição química centesimal e a atividade específica de LOX. A irradiação induziu a redução do teor de proteína em grãos de soja, porém os teores protéicos avaliados nos EHS produzidos a partir desses não sofreram alteração, comparados ao controle. Os tratamentos da fase 1 que se destacaram com a redução da atividade específica de LOX em EHS foram o térmico (80 °C), irradiação (5 kGy) e tocoferol (adicionado na quantidade máxima). Na fase 2 o tratamento térmico (80 °C) suplementado com tocoferol inibiu 100 % a atividade específica de LOX em EHS. Concluiu-se que os tratamentos físicos + tocoferol não alteraram os nutrientes do EHS, e que o tratamento térmico + tocoferol foi o único que inibiu totalmente a atividade específica de LOX
The soluble extract of soybean (“soymilk”) is considered an important beverage because of its functional characteristics. However, the beverage suffers sensory restrictions by the western population, due to the astringent flavor resulting from the action of the enzyme lipoxygenase (LOX) activated the extraction process. The aim of this search was to study the effect of physical and antioxidant treatments on the activity of the LOX in soymilk of different soybean cultivars. For this study we used physical treatments (irradiation and thermal) and antioxidants (Tocopherol and TBHQ) aimed at inactivation of the LOX (phase 1). From the selection of the best treatments of this phase, new tests were conducted associating physical treatments to antioxidant treatments (phase 2). To follow the results of enzymatic activity in soybeans and soymilk (control), centesimals chemical concentrations were performed of moisture, protein, fat, ash, crude fiber, carbohydrates, minerals and energy value. In soymilks produced in phase 1 analyzed the protein content and specific activity of the LOX. In irradiated grains and soymilk produced in phase 2 it was determined the centesimal chemical composition and specific activity of the LOX. The irradiation induced a reduction in protein content in soybeans, but the protein levels measured in soymilks produced from soybeans irradiated did not change compared to control. The treatments of phase 1 that stood out to reduce the specific activity of the LOX in soymilk were thermal (80 °C), 4 irradiation (5 kGy) and tocopherol (added in the maximum). In phase 2 the thermal treatment (80 °C) supplemented with tocopherol inhibited 100% specific activity of the LOX in soymilk. It was concluded that physical treatments + tocopherol did not alter the nutrients in soymilk, and the treatment thermal + tocopherol was the only one that completely inhibited the specific activity of the LOX

The animal production potential grows fast and food production is always being challenged to meet this need in the nutrition as well as in the economic context. Forage plants are the basis of the diet of ruminants in most production systems in tropical regions. Forage availability varies during the year depending on weather conditions. It turns necessary to have stored forage to supplement the animals. Silage is the most widely used form of stored forage. The tropical grasses ensiling is an alternative to traditional silage crops because it can be used the surplus produced in the rainy season. However, the fermentation process can be altered by many factors, making difficult the production of good quality silage so there is the need of using additives as a means of improving the nutritional and fermentative quality of these types of silages. Thus, this study aimed to use moisture sequestering additives: soybean, canola, sunflower and cotton meal, in the production of B. brizantha silage in order to improve the nutritional value, fermentative value, degradability and digestibility of these silages, thus obtaining information about alternative materials for the production of good quality silage. The experiment was carried out a part in experimental PVC silos and estimated the bromatologic parameters, effluent and gas losses, N-NH3, pH, titratable acidity, protein fractions and silage degradability, and the other part in experimental silos with a capacity of 200 kg to evaluate the performance of sheep fed with these silages through intake and total tract digestibility of nutrients, metabolic and rumen parameters of these animals. The silages of Brachiaria brizantha with sequestering moisture additives were effective in keeping concentrations of plasma metabolic and ruminal profile parameters within the reference levels, increasing the readily soluble A fraction and decreasing the C protein fraction consequently improving the ruminal degradability, and reducing the silage losses. Therefore it is recommended its use as an alternative to ruminant nutrition.
O potencial de produção animal cresce num ritmo acelerado e a produção de alimentos está sempre sendo desafiada a suprir essa necessidade tanto no contexto nutricional quanto econômico. As plantas forrageiras constituem a base da dieta dos ruminantes na grande maioria dos sistemas de produção das regiões tropicais. A disponibilidade de forragem é variável durante o ano, dependendo de condições climáticas. Isto gera a necessidade de se ter forragem conservada sendo a silagem a forma mais utilizada. A ensilagem de capins tropicais é uma alternativa à ensilagem de culturas tradicionais podendo ser utilizada o excedente produzido na época das águas. No entanto, o processo fermentativo pode ser alterado por alguns fatores, dificultando a confecção de silagens de boa qualidade, havendo assim a necessidade do uso de aditivos como meio de melhora da qualidade nutricional e fermentativa desses tipos de silagens. Dessa forma, o presente trabalho visou utilizar aditivos sequestrantes de umidade: farelos de soja, canola, girassol e algodão, na confecção de silagens de Brachiaria brizantha com o objetivo de melhorar o valor nutritivo, valor fermentativo, degradabilidade e digestibilidade dessas silagens, obtendo assim, informações sobre materiais alternativos para a confecção de silagens de qualidade. O experimento foi realizado uma parte em silos experimentais de PVC e estimados os parâmetros bromatológicos, as perdas por efluentes, perdas por gases, N-NH3, pH, acidez titulável, frações proteicas e a degradabilidade da massa ensilada, e outra parte em silos experimentais com capacidade para 200 kg para avaliar o desempenho de ovinos alimentados com essas silagens, através de consumo e digestibilidade total dos nutrientes, parâmetros metabólicos e ruminais destes animais. As silagens de Brachiaria brizantha com aditivos sequestrantes de umidade foram eficientes em manter as concentrações dos metabólicos plasmáticos e parâmetros de perfil ruminal dentro dos níveis de referência, aumentar a fração A prontamente solúvel e diminuir a fração C da proteína consequentemente melhorando a degradabilidade ruminal, e diminuindo as perdas da silagem. Portanto sendo recomendado o seu uso como alternativa para a nutrição de ruminantes.

Abstract:
Este estudo analisa como mudanças institucionais no mercado da soja brasileiro proporcionam as condições para negociação de um sistema de governança ambiental para a produção na Amazônia. Em junho de 2006, as principais agroindústrias anunciaram um acordo inédito parao setor agrícola do país: Elas se comprometeram a não comercializa a colheita produzidas em novas áreas desmatadas da floresta amazônica. Esse acordo ficou conhecido como a Moratória da Sója e deu origem a um sistema de segurança multistakeholders para conter o avanço da produção sobre a floresta. O comportamento dos atores ligados à agroindústria da soja é a face mais visível de um fenômeno social que também tem seus componetes econômicos, culturais e políticos. O arranjo que surgiu no campo da soja faz parte de um movimento que se espalha por vários mercados contemporâneos, onde cada vez mais as organizações, em vez de esperar pelo Estado antecipam-se criando sistemas voluntários de gestão ambiental, por meio de protocolos e acordos voltados a reduzir os impactos ambientais negativos daquilo que fazem. A decisão de decretar a moratória e a consequente criação de um comitê de governança ambiental é analisada sob uma perspectiva histórica, na qual grupos dominantes e desafientes constantemente disputam nos campos sociais a definição das instituições que dão estabilidade aos mercados. A partir de novas vertentes teóricas da nova sociologia econômica e da teoria das organizações, as ações tomadas pela agroindústria são vistas não apenas como escolha racional a partir dos recursos internos das empresas e dos sinais do mercado, mas como resposta a pressão externa por legitimidade.
This study focus on how institutional changes in the soybean market generated conditions to setting an environmental governance system for production in the Amazon region. On June 2006, the main soybean and trading companies working in Brazil reached an unprecedented agreement on not to trade soy grown in newly deforested area in the Amazon. The agreement was named Soybean Moratorium in the Amazon and led to the creation of the Soya Working Group, a multistakeholder arrangement to curb production from spreading throughout the forest. The soybean industry actors behavior is part of a broader complex social phenomenon, which also includes economic, cultural and political components. The new institutional arrangement in the soybean organizational field is connected to a broader move spreading on several contemporary markets, in which organizations, instead of waiting for State regulations, adopt initiatives, such as voluntary systems of environmental management through alliances, agreements and certifications systems, to control the negative impacts of their activities. The new attitudes are explained from a historical perspective, in which dominant groups and their challengers dispute, within social arenas, the definition of institutions that stabilize the organizational field. Using the theoretical approaches of economic sociology and sociology of organizations, the action of the soybean industry is seen not only as rational choices based on the company resources and market signals, but as answers to external pressures for legitimacy

This essay seeks to identify and analyze the different modalities of the soybean seed trade by COTRIJUI, presenting a brief characterization of the official procedures followed by the cooperative in relation to the seed sector. It deals also with the main issues concerning seed certification, seed quality, trade and commerce supervision. A study was undertaken on the seed business, relating theoretical knowledge with personal skills and facts from everyday practice. Data concerning the mutual program of soy seed trade (MSP) were collected between the years 2005 and 2011, based on the exchange of soybean seeds for industry purposes. Throughout this period the different ways adopted by the MSP were listed and discussed, considering different groups according to the productive potential of soybean cultivars, the time period during which they remain available on the market, size after undergoing sieve grading (small or large seeds) and different kinds of insecticide, fungicide and nutrient treatments, to which marketed seed is subjected. This work, conducted on the Ijui unit of COTRIJUI, revised data allowing to the assessment of the cooperative performance and its future potential. As a result, the trade system in practice proved to be feasible for both, the cooperative and the farmer who fully adhered to the system. It was observed also that it is possible to add value to products that potentiate the seed trade, which stresses the importance that must be given to this subject.
Este trabalho busca identificar e analisar as modalidades de comercialização de sementes de soja praticadas pela COTRIJUI. Apresenta-se uma breve caracterização das normas e legalidade para o setor sementeiro, bem como os principais fatores imprescindíveis com relação à certificação, qualidade da semente, comercialização e fiscalização do comércio. Realizou-se um estudo sobre o negócio semente, relacionando os conhecimentos teóricos e as habilidades com a prática. Foram levantados dados referentes ao programa Mútuo de comercialização de sementes de soja, fundamentado na troca de sementes por soja indústria, no período compreendido entre os anos 2005 e 2011. Foram elencadas e discutidas as diferentes formas ao longo dos anos de funcionamento do sistema, considerando diferentes grupos de acordo com o potencial produtivo das cultivares, tempo que estão no mercado, peneira(sementes maiores ou menores) e distintos tratamentos com inseticidas, fungicidas e nutrientes a que a semente comercializada é submetida. O resultado do estudo, analisando o negócio semente na COTRIJUI Unidade de Ijuí, resgatou informações, avaliou o desempenho da cooperativa e as potencialidades futuras. Em decorrência dos dados apresentados, o sistema de comercialização mostrou-se viável tanto para a cooperativa quanto para o agricultor que vem aderindo de forma intensa ao sistema. Verificou-se também que é possível agregar valor e potencializar o negócio, o que reforça a importância que deve ser dada a este assunto.

Abstract:
Cette recherche se situe dans la perspective des travaux qui traitent du développement de l’agrobusiness du soja et de la viande en expansion particulièrement rapide depuis 2008 en Amérique Latine. Notre recherche analyse l’impact du développement de ces nouvelles formes de production reliées aux marchés financiers sur le fonctionnement technique et les résultats économiques des différents agents impliqués dans la production, et sur la durabilité des systèmes de production présents. Ce travail a été mené dans deux régions d’étude en Uruguay (Young et Ansina), choisies de manière à disposer de situations contrastées dans le moment et le degré d’expansion de ces formes productives financiarisées. Nous avons utilisé l’analyse-diagnostic de système agraire pour étudier la dynamique de différenciation des systèmes de production agricole des territoires concernés et évaluer leur niveau de productivité et la répartition de valeur ajoutée créée. Nous avons également analysé l’évolution des rapports de production au sein de ces systèmes agraires et les conséquences des inégalités croissantes d’accès aux ressources productives. Le mouvement de repli des très grandes sociétés en réseau, expérimenté en Uruguay depuis le début de la décennie 2010, nous a aussi amené à identifier les dynamiques naissantes des agents économiques restants dans la gestion des systèmes de production. Nous avons enfin replacé notre analyse en perspective des débats sur les transformations liées à la financiarisation de l’agriculture
This research deals with the development of soybean and meat agribusiness, and of its particular expansion in Latin America since 2008. Our analysis considers the impact of the development of financial markets-linked productions onto the technical development and economic results of the agents involved in the production process, as well as onto the sustainability of theses production systems. This work was conducted in two areas in Uruguay (Young and Ansina), selected for having different characteristics about the timeline and the stage of the financialized productive forms development. We have used the agrarian system approach, in order to emphasize the differentiation dynamic of agricultural production systems in the concerned territories, and their production and added-value distribution. We have highlighted the evolution of relations of production in these farming systems, and their consequences onto growing inequalities in regards to access to productive resources. The reflux in very large networking companies, seen in Uruguay in the early 2010’s, has also led us to identify the remaining land users emerging strategies for productive system management. Finally, we have also taken into consideration the debates induced by these dramatic changes linked to financialization of agriculture to ponderate our study

This study aimed to investigate the effect of microbial TGase (MTGase) on the texture of packed tofu and the possibility of using MTGase as coagulant. The highest water holding capacity was 77.5% from commercial tofu, while that of with 0.5% TG-B (46-76 U/g), 0.5% TG-K (78-126 U/g), and 2.45 % MTGase (817.2 U/g) were 67.6 %, 66.4 % and 57.9%, respectively. Combination use of 0.5% commercial TGase (TG-K) with 0.1% MgCl2 had gel strength 1328 gxmm which were higher than 866.0 gxmm of commercial tofu. The gel strength of sample with 0.3 % commercial TGase (TG-B) and 0.3% MgCl2 was 750.0 gxmm, while that with 2.45 % MTGase (817.2 U/g) was 150.1 gxmm. Comparing with that was using MgCl2 per se, the gel strength of samples with MTGase increased from 218.7 to 334.0 gxmm. Comparing the consistency of texture and porosity in scanning electron microscope (SEM) diagrams, the commercial tofu was the best, then the samples with MTGase > CaSO4 > MgCl2. SEM profiles suggested that MTGase could improve the coarse texture of tofu. According to LC-MS profile, 45% of -(-glutamyl) lysine bonds of samples using MTGas as coagulant increase, comparing to those without MTGase. After being digested by trypsin and pepsin, no significant differences in soluble protein, peptides and free amino acids was observed between samples with MTGase (277.2, 12.6 and 1.46 mg/g, respectively) and commercial tofu (261.7, 17.7 and 3.92 mg/g, respectively) (p&;lt;0.05). No significant differences of increasing values in glutamic acid, lysine and glutamine between samples with MTGase (9.45, 0.29 and 0.18 mg/100g, respectively) and commercial tofu (2.44, 1.05 and 1.14 mg/100g, respectively) was also obtained (p>0.05), suggesting the -(-glutamyl) lysine isopeptide bonds can be digested by trypsin and pepsin.

This research paper analyses the Zambian soya bean value chain and serves to explore and investigate to what extent trade theory can be used to explain this value chain. Soya bean production in Zambia has grown vastly within the last four years, owing to this growth, Zambia has instantly become a net exporter of soya bean cake. Most of the soya bean cake produced is consumed within the country. The animal feed industry utilises a large percentage of the soya cake in order to produce animal feed for the poultry sector predominantly. The growth in the soya industry has created various linkages for example the poultry industry which is a growing industry owing to amongst other factors, the growth in the Zambian middle class. This research aims to explore the constraints, challenges and drivers of this value chain. Trade theory is used in order to explain the value chain and capture the limitations of theory in relation to the Zambian soya bean value chain. The research paper uses both a qualitative and quantitative methodology. Interviews were used to source information and quantitative data was collected from various platforms

Abstract:
High linoleic acid soybeans facilitate maximum production of soy-based polyurethane. The objectives of this study were to: 1) Evaluate environmental influence on yield and seed composition traits; 2) Estimate correlation coefficients between linoleic acid with agronomic traits; 3) Validate SSR markers associated with fatty acid QTL in multiple environments and across diverse genotypes; and 4) Evaluate the influence of fertilizers differing in P and K concentrations on seed fatty acids. RG25 was identified as the best genotype to be commercialized for polyurethane production. Strong marker-trait associations across environments included Satt_335, Satt389, Satt556 associated with palmitic and stearic, Satt389 with oleic, Satt389 and Satt537 with linoleic acid. A significant increase in linoleic acid content was observed when plants received modified Hoagland’s solution with 2×K compared to without K. Development of a high linoleic acid soybean line for polyurethane production is feasible using validated SSR markers and high K fertility.

Because the self-sufficiency ratio of soybeans in Taiwan has been lower than 1%, most of the soybean sold in Taiwan comes from international suppliers, among which the United States dominates 87.5% of the market. The special trade relation raises the interest of the current study whether the law of one price holds for the export soybean from the U.S. and the import soybean market in Taiwan. By performing Johansen cointegration, this paper aims to examine the price connection during the period from January 2004 to July 2008. The primary empirical result shows that both export soybean from the U.S. and the import soybean in Taiwan are consistent with the law of one price. This finding also reinstate that there is no evidence to reflect any market maneuver in the soybean industry in Taiwan. Therefore, to make excess profits in the period of high rising soybean price are not possible given that soybean’s import are carefully monitored by the government agency and fully disseminated to the public. Moreover, with overwhelming proportion of imported soybeans is used to be processed by factories, we introduce the hedonic pricing model with dynamics consideration proposed by Chavas and Kim (2005) to find out the long-term price relationship among three differentiated products: soybeans, soybean oil and soybean meal. To confirm our empirical result, we also calculate marketing margin to investigate the degree of soybean price integration among differentiated products. The secondary empirical result reflects that the pricing of Taiwanese soybean industry agrees with the hedonic pricing model, in the long-run at least, given the assumption of fixed composition of the differentiated commodities. Since the cointegrated price vector under hedonic pricing model matches closely to that under Johansen cointegration approach, it points out that the long-term price relationship among soybeans, soybean oil and soybean is consistent with hedonic pricing model.

A study was conducted to assess the economic impact of the innovations - improved cultivars and mechanization - on the vegetable soybean industry in Taiwan by measuring the change in economic surplus and its distribution to the producers and consumers of the product. The study also investigated the performance of the industry in regards to production. The economic surplus was measured using the economic surplus approach. This method provided a relatively flexible approach to specifying the value of innovations by comparing the situations with and without it. The analyses propose that returns to the research and development efforts that resulted in adoption of the new technologies include increased crop yield, positive NPV of US$230,918 and an acceptable IRR of 52%. The economic surplus analysis showed a total economic surplus of US$1,395,880.

The study points out the food industry whether getting the benefit of sanitation management improvement or not after the consulting from the government. The 100 soybean product manufactures in Taoyuan are as the research object. According to the Good Hygiene Practice, they are evaluated including two times of field consulting and one graded inspection. Through this procedure, the effect of the self-management was investigated in these manufacturers for improvement on safety and Hygiene. The indicators of self-management of sanitation are based on the GHP consulting table, and have two parts: (1) Self-management consisting of operation environment and the management of its warehouse hygiene, health and hygiene management of food employees, and product and raw material management; (2) In general regulations including the supplier management, food additives management, food traceability, product labeling and food registeration, and food industry registeration. Results show that there are 43.0% for no factory registeration, being the most. The second one is the factor registeration (31.0%). The last one is the temporary factory registeration (26.0%). Besides, through grading check score, there are 33 manufacturers get Level A (in score upper than 88). And, 30 Manufacturers get Level B (score range from 66 to 87). 37 manufacturers fell into level C (score lower than 65). The main disadvantages in self-management are: operating plant did not maintain cleanliness, not separated by cleanliness, and reservoir was not managed. The main missing in General provisions section are: no additives records and no raw material records. Manufacturers having received food hygiene education training could obviously get higher performance in the operating environment and warehousing health management, health management of food employees, food industry registration and audit score than those who did not take the training courses.Those manufacturers, obtained from both the 2nd consulting and the 3rd Graded inspection, get higher score than those obtained from the 1st consulting. Furthermore, there were no frand and adulteration happen during these checks. Levels of several food additives were detected in 976 soybean products collected from factory and its downstream. The test items included preservatives, hydrogen peroxide, dimethyl yellow, diethyl yellow and metanil yellow, Methods of Food and Drug Administration were applied to perform. That detected the number of unqualified pieces of 26 were detected (average of 2.66%), The highest illegal rate was 1.54% for benzoic acid, the illegal rate of hydrogen peroxide was 1.09%, and the illegal rate of sorbic acid was 0.1%. The number of illegal manufacturers were 13, among them seven manufacturers were belong to the C-class, six manufacturers were the B-class. Therefore, it is recommended that food control authorities should proide sufficient education for the foremen and inspecting officers. Then, the government performance grading check to monitoring the manufacturers follow the basic requirements of food safety control, to improve food safety management.

Vegetable soybean industry in Taiwan has more than 30 years of history. It has been the most competitive and has become the key developing item for Taiwan’s Council of Agriculture. However, as a result of the decrease in the number of export and the lowered market share in Japan, it is deemed that the industry has entered a period of recession. Thus, there is urgent need to adjust the industrial development strategy to enhance its competitiveness. In order to provide the industry and government some reference for decision-making, this study used the Constant Market Share (CMS) analysis to understand Taiwan's soybean competitiveness in Japan and the Analytical Hierarch Process (AHP) constructed from Porter’s Diamond Model as the theoretical foundation to clarify various factors that potentially influenced the industrial competitiveness. The results showed that from 1997 to 2008, the growth and the competitiveness effects of Taiwan soybean export to Japan were negative, while the Thailand and Indonesia’s were positive. In addition, Thailand has become a strong rival of Taiwan. The study also found that to enhance the competitiveness of Taiwan's vegetable soybean industry, the top priorities should be: 1. To explore the international market so to stabilize the demand; 2. to decrease the production costs; 3. to improve the production and the processing technology, 4. to diverse the market access, 5. to increase the manufacturers’ competitiveness by innovating the product, lowering the cost and diversifying the strategies; 6. to establish the brand and so on.

Consumers’ health consciousness has been rising in recent years. Consumers often choose healthy drinks; therefore, the beverage industry has endeavored to produce healthy drinks. The benefits of soybean drinks have been recognized by many medical journals or reports. Hence, consumers are willing to accept canned soybean drinks and purchase them. Then demands on the market are increasing. Making an appropriate transition to face the internal and external environment changes has been an important issue to Company A. This case study discusses Company A’s development of a new model of existence under the disadvantaged environment where the external environment is changing and the external environment does not live up to the standards. This new mode of existence includes external transition and improvement on internal processing skill. Company A uses the existing basic product and works on transitional strategies in order to promote the growth of the overall supply chain. In order to face similar competitive products, Company A develops a model to adjust and respond to market survival advantages. This is a case study. Company A’s information and reports were collected and analyzed in terms of its transition process in the growth of external markets, supply chains, internal process, and the process of successful transformation. The analysis and discussion of this study aims to provide a model for domestic small and medium-size enterprises. Based on the existing products or professional process ability, enterprises should develop their technological and marketing advantages. Enterprises can turn crisis into an opportunity based on their core competence and the future trend. Enterprises should use their own resources and rethink the future transitional trend for traditional beverage industry in order to face internal and external competition and threats.
