Benson Hill, Inc. recently completed a feeding trial with Perdue Farms to demonstrate the value of incorporating soybean meal derived from Benson Hill's Ultra-High Protein, Low Oligosaccharide (UHP-LO) soybeans into broiler diets. Results confirm that the inclusion of UHP-LO soybean meal throughout all phases of broiler production delivered a significant reduction in feed costs while maintaining performance, reflecting the higher protein and metabolizable energy inherent in Benson Hill's proprietary soybean genetics. As previously announced, Benson Hill's UHP-LO soybean varieties demonstrate novel attributes for animal feedrations, enabling broadacre expansion of Benson Hill's proprietary soybeans.

Previous research identified three key product attributes of UHP-LO soy that uniquely position it for adoption by animal companies, soybean processors, and farmers. These key attributes are higher protein levels, lower anti-nutritional factors, and competitive yields.
