it's not a majority of the revenue. it's about half of the revenue from beans that are pressed for oil, but there are other uses.

50% of revenue is not a byproduct, that's a core part! I don't see much point continuing these conversation as if we are going to claim that we can just ignore 50% of revenue as a "byproduct". None of these conversations are going to get anywhere if that's the way things are going to go

since soybeans can be fed directly to animals, there is no need to make soy meal first. they are placed in an oil press, and the byproduct of pressing them for oil is soy meal. these are bare facts.
