Now, you could really help us farmers out if you could get SOY Biodiesel
I've been running FPPF for a looooong time

Why soy biodiesel? Use straight soybean oil ! Lubricity is not going to get much better!

want to do some for me?

we got 800 acres of beans out.

Sure, when/if we get it up and running. It's a struggle right now to pull all the info together to see how feasible it will be to operate, and still run the seed business along side.

I'm unfamiliar with where Freddyville is?

I know, I'm just messing around.

They're trying to get one (a soydiesel plant) going not too far from here. Right now its all been about the ethanol plants.....friggin crazy. I really think soydiesel/soy processing will be the next big thing when the lustor of the ethanol industry wears off.

How are the beans doing Tim? Were you very dry there this year?

I wasn't sure about freddyville, we were real dry but got them in early so the have size before it got dry.
now we've been flooded, more north of us but did get 4.5" last monday night.

Should go above 40 maybe a lot more, hard to tell, they're waist to chest high.

 

[MaxFarmer]

1/2 of my beans got hailed pretty good about a week ago. They were waist/chest high and now are only hip-high. They should still make something though.

Doesnt that piss you off with all that rain at once? If you could have had 1/2 that a month eariler......
