Grand Forks, N.D. (KNOX) – A ribbon cutting ceremony was held Tuesday for the new Green Bison Soy Processing Plant in Spiritwood, N.D.
The $350 million dollar facility will process up to 150,000 bushels of soybeans per day.
The plant will produce up to 600 million pounds of refined soybean oil per year while generating 1.3 million tons of soybean meal for ag production in the region.
The facility is a joint venture between ADM and Marathon Petroleum and is located about ten miles east of Jamestown.
Green Bison began accepting soybeans at their new plant on Sept. 18 of this year.
