Abstract: The increased meat demand is a driver of poultry production which is expected to make up 39% protein source by 2030. This is because of its nutritional value, and also because there are no religious or cultural barriers hindering the production and consumption. The banning of animal products as a source of protein in the nutrition of animals in the EU, necessitates an alternative protein source. Soybean is considered as a source of plant protein in sustainable poultry production because it is relatively cheap and affordable. However, there is a high demand of soy products due to its relevance in both human and animals. The purpose of this work is to review the role of soybeans use as a major protein source in poultry nutrition. This work also focus on the prediction of future challenges in utilisation of soybean in animal diet such as Increase in price of feed ingredients due to competition between animal agriculture industries and bio-fuel industries, Demands of environmental regulations regarding animal feed production, due to nitrogen waste and phosphorus removal into the surroundings as a result of the use of soybean.
Keywords: Soybean, poultry, nutrition, protein, utilization, challenges.
