USSEC is resuming its presence in Syria after years of inactivity, following eased restrictions that reopen the market for U.S. Soy. The organization plans to rebuild ties with the country’s feed and oilseed industries, which once relied heavily on its technical support. Industry stakeholders say the renewed engagement could help Syria meet rising protein demand amid demographic growth.

USSEC CEO Jim Sutter shares his perspective on the evolving U.S.–China soybean trade, global market opportunities, and the growing role of sustainability in feed supply chains. His insights highlight both the optimism surrounding renewed Chinese purchases and the strategic advantages of U.S. Soy for importers worldwide.

The advantages of US-origin soybeans in terms of quality and sustainability in the feed industry were comprehensively discussed at a seminar organized by USSEC Türkiye in İzmir.
