The activity generating the emissions is soybean meal and crude oil production, mechanical extraction. The Reference Product is soybean meal. The product soybean meal is an animal feed from milled soybeans. Soybean meal is produced by means of solvent extraction (pre-cracking of soybeans, dehulling, oil extraction and meal processing) in a oil mill producing soybean meal and crude oil. The meal and hulls are later consumed as animal feed. The Reference Product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity.
