About Shell Rock Soy Processing

Shell Rock Soy Processing (SRSP) is a new soybean crushing plant located at the Butler Logistics Park in Shell Rock, Iowa. The plant aims to propel value-added agriculture forward in Iowa by adding tremendous value to soybeans in the eastern part of the state. SRSP serves local farmers, the livestock sector, and the human food industry by providing high-quality, 48 percent protein soymeal and versatile soybean oil. Approximately 25 percent of the plant's products will be used within Iowa, while 75 percent will be exported outside the state. The business model focuses on processing soybeans to produce soymeal and oil, generating revenue through the sale of these products. The plant's development has involved collaboration among local farmers, agricultural cooperatives, economic development leaders, county zoning officials, and other stakeholders.
