From the Joplin Globe - Soybean ranking tumbles

NEVADA, Mo. - During the last 15 years, world soybean production has doubled, according to University of Missouri Economist Ron Plain. The big boost means the United States has slipped from producing half the world's soybeans to a third of the supply. Brazil and Argentina combine to produce more soybeans than the United States, he said.
