Abstract Soybean is the most important oil and high protein crops in the world. Allocating the scarce resources efficiently is then ecessary mean for mankind to obtain food, the point is the same to soybean. Based on the non-parametric method of double-output model, the paper divided allocative efficiency of resources into three parts, id est, scale efficiency, pure technical efficiency and handling degree of the input factor. After analyzing the allocative efficiency soybean production resources in China, the article has a futher study on the optimizing strategies for its allocation configuration. The results show that the restrictive factor from soybean production resource allocative efficiency is that present production of soybean is not efficient on scale. This means Chinese central government should further protect and improve the efficiency of rural land use, make more efforts to eliminate the inefficient situation in soybean production on Yangtze River basin, and improve the soybean production resource allocative efficiency of Yellow River and Songliao River Basin.The measures should be as follows:1)to perfect the rural land and control agricultural population; 2)to improve technical innovation and the commercialization of scientific and technological production in soybean; 3)to implement direct allowance policy on soybean production just like current wheat and rice allowance policy in most provinces; 4)to take economic means, that are price regulation in domestic market and import restriction on transgenic soybeans in international trade, and which be of advantage to Chinese peasants and Chinese soybean industry. The upper measures also give an effective way that can make up a market out of order, promoting soybean production highly and steadily.
