Soybean — Detailed Guide

Soybeans in Primitive Plus

Soybeans are part of the Primitive Plus DLC of ARK: Survival Evolved; players grind them or use them to tame herbivores. In-game it is described as "Harvested from a soybean plant. Can be used in a variety of recipes." The wiki files it under plants and gives 1.5 (Primitive Plus) as the version that added it.

Growing soybeans

Plant Soybean Seeds in a Medium Crop Plot or a Large Crop Plot, and the plants yield Soybeans.

Grinding and taming

  • Ground Soybean: a Handmill grinds 20 Soybeans into Ground Soybean. It is the one recipe our records list for this item.
  • Herbivore taming: most herbivores can be tamed with soybeans the same way as with crops, and each soybean is worth 40 food while taming.
  • Megaloceros: the wiki calls soybeans the favourite food of the Megaloceros, which tames 15x faster on them than on normal crops.

Weight and stack size

A single soybean weighs 0.1 and they stack to 200, so a full stack weighs 20.
