North Dakota Soybean Council Director of Market Development Jena Bjertness says the primary customer for North Dakota soybeans has changed. Rather than the whole bean buyer in China, North Dakota beans are going to be destined for domestic markets. The new crush facilities coming on line in the state will use about half of North Dakota’s soybeans production for renewable diesel in California. “That’s a major shift for us.” The North Dakota Soybean Council has hosted marketing seminars to help growers adapt to these market changes.
