The subject matter of the soybean futures contract of Dashang Institute is soybean futures. In March 2002, due to the promulgation and implementation of the National Regulations on the Management of Genetically Modified Organisms, imported soybean futures were temporarily unable to participate in futures delivery. Therefore, Dalian Commodity Exchange divides the soybean futures contract into 1 soybean futures contract with edible quality and No.2 soybean futures contract with genetically modified and non-genetically modified soybean oil.

The soybean futures 1 contract is positioned as edible soybean futures, and the soybean futures No.2 contract is positioned as soybean futures for oil extraction. Secondly, the index system is different. Soybean futures contract. 1 adopt the edible soybean futures index system with the current national soybean futures standard and pure grain rate as the core grading indicators, while the soybean futures contract No.2 adopts the soybean oil extraction futures index system with the national soybean futures oil standard and crude fat content as the core grading indicators.
