The first load of soybeans is put into storage at the new Bartlett Soybean Processing facility south of Cherryvale.

A truck delivering soybeans from Steffens Farms in Missouri arrived at the plant this afternoon. The load was described as a test run as the facility is not yet fully operational. However, the load that arrived is just the first of many more to come as the plant comes into full production.

The Bartlett Soybean Processing facility is located just east of the Montgomery County landfill.
