Soybean Maintains Its Potential in the Ukrainian Market: The Importance of Fast Quality Control

Soybean remains one of Ukraine’s most flexible export crops. Strong demand from processing companies, the possibility of selling both domestically and for export, and access to different logistics options continue to support interest in soybean production.

According to market analysts, soybean may maintain a more attractive price outlook than corn during the new marketing season. During the peak harvesting period, a significant increase in corn supply could put pressure on prices, while soybean may have better prospects for price growth in the second half of the season.

The quality of each soybean batch remains an important factor in its commercial value. Oil content and moisture affect the value of the raw material, storage conditions and further processing efficiency. This makes fast laboratory quality control particularly important during the active intake of the new crop.

 

New to the  product range — the Niumag PQ001-12-040V NMR analyzer for rapid determination of oil and moisture content in oilseed materials.

For laboratories that need to quickly determine the key quality parameters of oilseed raw materials, PromInvestService presents the Niumag PQ001-12-040V NMR Oil and Moisture Analyzer.

The instrument uses nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technology to determine oil and moisture content in a sample in approximately 1–2 minutes. The analysis requires no chemical reagents or solvents, making the method convenient for routine testing of large numbers of samples.

With the appropriate calibrations, Niumag can be used to analyze soybeans, sunflower seeds, rapeseed, meal, oilcake and other oilseed processing products.

 

Key Benefits of the Niumag PQ001-12-040V

  • determination of oil and moisture content in a single analysis;
  • analysis time of approximately 1–2 minutes;
  • no chemical reagents or solvents required;
  • non-destructive testing method;
  • high measurement repeatability;
  • automated data processing;
  • suitable for laboratories handling a high volume of samples.

 

The analyzer provides an oil content measurement range of 0.1–100% and a moisture range of 2–10%, with a maximum sample size of Ø40 × H60 mm. The instrument complies with the ISO 10565 standard.

For grain elevator laboratories, oilseed processing companies, seed production facilities and research centers, the Niumag NMR analyzer can provide a practical solution for rapid raw material quality control during receiving, storage and processing.

 

Niumag PQ001-12-040V — a modern solution for rapid determination of oil and moisture content in soybeans and other oilseed crops.
