VEGETABLE SOYBEANS 
Soja Max 
Vegetable or edible soybeans have attained some popularity as a high protein health 
food either fresh, quick frozen or canned. At harvest time they remain in the high quality 
stage longer than other beans, thereby allowing a longer time for picking without loss of 
quality. The 5 minute hot water treatment of pods makes shelling much easier. It requires 
from 3 to 4 weeks after edible stage to reach the dry shell maturity.
