Why FUSHKOV GCG
About the Product
Soybean oil is produced from soybeans in two ways: mechanical pressing and extraction with organic solvents. It is traded as cold-pressed, crude (unrefined) and refined oil.
Soybean oil ranks second in the world vegetable oil market. Argentina is the world's largest soybean oil exporter. Soybean oil has a higher tocopherol (vitamin E) content than other vegetable oils.
Applications
Soybean oil is widely used in the food industry and to enrich compound feed, and as a renewable plant-based raw material for non-food products.

Types and Grades
International Standards
In international trade, soybean oil requirements are usually checked against Codex Alimentarius standard CXS 210-1999 for named vegetable oils. It sets an acid value of no more than 0.6 mg KOH/g for refined oils and no more than 4.0 mg KOH/g for cold-pressed and virgin oils. In the EAEU countries, GOST 31760-2012 applies and distinguishes 6 types of soybean oil. When you buy soybean oil in bulk, the type of oil and the applicable standard are stated in the specification.
Storage and Transport
Vegetable oils are stored in clean, closed tanks, protected from light, heat and contact with air. Wholesale soybean oil is usually shipped in bulk in dedicated tanks or flexitanks; packed oil travels in retail or industrial packaging.
How a Deal Works
A physical commodity trade typically moves through a set of standard stages. The outline below reflects general industry practice; the actual terms are always set by the contract.
Typical Document Set
In international agricultural trade, the document set usually includes a commercial invoice, a bill of lading or other transport document, and certificates of origin, quality and weight. Plant products normally require a phytosanitary certificate, and feed products a veterinary certificate. The exact list depends on the product, the destination country and the contract terms.
Incoterms 2020 at a Glance
- FCA — the seller hands the goods over to the carrier nominated by the buyer at an agreed place; suitable for any mode of transport.
- FOB — the goods are delivered once loaded on board the buyer's vessel at the port of shipment; from that point the buyer bears the risk.
- CFR — the seller pays freight to the port of destination, but risk passes to the buyer once the goods are on board at the port of shipment.
- CIF — as CFR, but the seller also insures the cargo during the sea voyage.
- DAP — the seller delivers the goods to the agreed destination, ready for unloading; suitable for any mode of transport.
FOB, CFR and CIF apply to sea and inland waterway transport only. This summary is general: the delivery basis is chosen for each deal and fixed in the contract.
