A $350 million soybean crushing and refining plant is planned in Spiritwood, ND, which will have significant benefits to the state’s agriculture industry and economy.
ADM said the plant at the Spiritwood Energy Park Association industrial site will create about 70 permanent jobs and have the capacity to process up to 150,000 bushels of soybeans/day, or more than 54 million/year.
ADM said the plant will produce soybean meal and vegetable oil for food, feed, industrial and fuel customers, including producers of renewable diesel.
Soybean oil from the plant would be shipped to the Marathon Petroleum refinery in Dickinson, ND, to make renewable diesel.
