Bunge Ltd’s soybean processing plant in Bellevue, OH, planned to resume crushing operations on Tuesday for the first time since a grain elevator caught fire at the facility on Nov. 20, a company spokeswoman said.
Reuters reports the fire damaged a grain elevator as well as conveyer belts and other equipment, forcing a shutdown at the facility that processes soybeans into soybean oil and soymeal, an animal feed.
Bunge’s processor had continued to refine crude soyoil and would now begin crushing soybeans, according to the company.
