Abstract:
Soyabeans are rich in proteins and are becoming popular day-by-day. States like MP, UP,
Maharashtra, Gujarat etc. are producing substantial quantities with MP being the largest
producer. Bulk of the soyabeans are processed by solvent extraction plants for oil leaving
large quantities of defatted soya flakes. These flakes or deoiled soya cake can be converted
into nuggets or chunks by extrusion. Hence the project should be preferably located close to
the soyabean extraction plants.
