The American Soybean Association outlines Inflation Reduction Act provisions affecting soybeans, including about $18.77 billion in added USDA conservation funding through FY2026. The law also includes biofuel incentives such as tax credits for renewable diesel and next-generation fuels.
Biofuel incentives in the IRA support soybean oil demand for fuel, which can lift soybean oil and soybean prices, while conservation funding has a smaller direct price effect.
