At present, Brazil, the United States, and Argentina are at the forefront of soybean production, with China, India, and Paraguay following closely. It is anticipated that these top three producers will retain their positions, and the deviation from the initial expectations is largely attributed to the production levels in the first two countries. In this context, Biofuels International comments:

Nevertheless, the 403 million metric tons still represent an increase on a global scale compared to the current quantity.
As of August 2023, the USDA reports that production stands at 402.787 million metric tons (2022/23), and the global ranking appears as follows:
