Plains Oilseed Products LLC plans to construct and operate an oilseed processing plant in western Oklahoma. The plant proposed by the limited liability company formed in January will crush oilseeds such as canola, sunflowers, peanuts and soybeans. Plains Oilseed Products plans to process 100,000 tons of oilseeds each year and produce 7.7 million gallons of oil, which will be marketed to food-grade oil refiners and biodiesel plants. The plant will also produce 69,000 tons of canola and other meals annually, which will be marketed to Oklahoma feed manufacturers and large- scale dairies. The company is working with the Oklahoma Department of Commerce to research and solicit requests for proposals from communities for the plant’s location.
