Subject: Re: would you grow your own soybean meal?



Woodham, Ontario
their ROI calculator seems almost too good to be true... Right now, with our land base we could probably grow 100 acres of soybeans. Assume 50 bushels per acre, about 136 tons (for which I have no storage) Will only produce about a quarter of our total soymeal and seems like it needs a fair bit of attention. No system runs fully on it's own. Converting newer tractors to a 2-tank system is not easy. Not sure if the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

It can probably pay for itself, but we are not setup for it very well right now and all the aditional costs would likely make it not worth it.
