Productivity of soybean oil?

[zoliansanga]

Hi,



How do Soybean oil manufacturers get their profit?



Raw Soybean seed is Rs.38/Kg (approx) and 1 litre of Soybean oil cost Rs.90(Approx market price) per litre.*

The problem comes from this, you can squeeze out only 14% of oil from the seed.*

So, if you take a rough calculation, take the seed price as Rs.40(round up)/Kg, then the cost per Kg. comes as 4000/14=285.714.*



To extract 1Kg. of oil we need to squeeze around 7 to 8 Kg of the soybean seed, which is a loss in the layman prespective.



There must be some mechanism to get the profit out of this.



I want to set up Soybean oil extraction industry, but this is a question which I could not understand.





Thanks,
Zova

Dear Zova,
Greetings for the day !!!

I must say, you have got challenging question. But the facts, process and operations are slightly ahead of your thought process.

As per your calculation:-
7.150 Kg Soybean Seed (272 INR) = 1 Lit oil (90 INR)

As per my calculation:-
7.150 Kg Soybean Seed (272 INR) = 1 Lit oil (90 INR) + 6 kg of defatted cake (Raw) (300 INR) or Defatted cake products (600-1200 INR)

Txturised Soya Protein (TSP), Soya Nuggets, and Soya Bari, defatted soya flour product are the bi-product of extracting soybean oil.
