Summary
Support from the rural development programme was used to establish an innovative production process of soybean oil and soybean expeller (animal feed) that is free of GMOs and chemicals. Both products are of superior quality with unique nutritional values, such as higher digestibility and free of any chemical residual substances, through investment in new technology.
Results
The extracted soybean meal and soybean expeller that contain 7-9% had not previously been produced in Slovakia, so it is a unique production in Slovakia.
New jobs in a region with an unemployment rate of around 22% .
This innovative technology and production was awarded the Certificate of Innovation by the National Agricultural and Food Centre - Technical and Testing Institute for Agriculture.
