Anybody around here ever try contacting ADM or Incobrasa to get grains to use as fertilizer?  I like using soybean meal, and I dropped both ADM (40 ish miles away) and Incobrasa (10 miles away) emails asking if there was any way to buy as much as I could haul from them. 

My brother-in-law knows through his materials processing contacts that ADM sells a traincar load for $100. I'd take as much as I can fit in my truck for that cost! 

But alas, the emails went unanswered.  And I'm not much of a phone guy (yet)...  The soybean meal I do get seems to be (at least bagged) from somewhere in southern IL, so maybe I should check with them directly.
