Qualisoy Promotes Soy Portfolio at the International Baking Industry Exposition

Dec 18, 2019

Vegas - Full of lights, sounds and soybean oil? The International Baking Industry Exposition hosted more than 23,000 baking professionals in Las Vegas, where QUALISOY representatives promoted U.S. soy and created conversations around the soy portfolio, specifically soybean oil.

Every three years this event, the largest grain-based food industry event in the Western Hemisphere, draws more than 23,000 baking professionals from companies such as Nestlé, The J.M. Smucker Company and Schwan’s Company.

QUALISOY, a third-party collaboration between representatives from all sectors of the soybean industry, promotes the development of and builds the market for the latest soybean traits. As a sponsor and an exhibitor of this year’s IBIE event, QUALISOY members engaged with expo attendees, opening up conversations with decision-makers in the baking industry about the portfolio of soy grown in the U.S.

These conversations resulted in more than 230 leads and meetings with 14 different food companies. The team encouraged trial and adoption of high oleic soybean oil while fielding requests from over 35 people for samples. The QUALISOY-sponsored learning session also drew in 40 attendees.

Video: What Is Remote Sensing In Precision Agriculture? - The World of Agriculture

What Is Remote Sensing In Precision Agriculture? In this informative video, we will dive into the fascinating world of remote sensing and its role in precision agriculture. Remote sensing technology allows farmers to gather critical information about their fields without the need for physical presence. By utilizing satellites, drones, and aircraft equipped with advanced sensors, farmers can monitor various aspects of their crops, from temperature and moisture levels to overall plant health.

We will explore how the data collected through remote sensing can empower farmers to make strategic decisions for their crops. With the ability to identify specific areas that require more water or nutrients, farmers can optimize resource usage, leading to healthier plants and improved yields.

Moreover, remote sensing plays a vital role in tracking crop growth over time. By comparing images taken at different growth stages, farmers can evaluate their crops’ development and adjust their management practices accordingly.
