Big Sky Biofuels offers on-farm seed crushing, biodiesel conversion
If Paul R. Miller has his way, farmers will soon begin powering their tractors and combines with fuel that they grow themselves.
Miller is owner of Big Sky Biofuels, a startup Billings company that will offer on-farm crushing and biodiesel conversion for farmers who have raised oil-seed crops.
"The idea is to encourage sustainable production and to have the farmer grow oilseed crops capable of fueling their operations," Miller said.
Miller’s portable seed crusher and a generator that powers it fit on a flatbed trailer and can be hauled directly to a farm, where it can be used to extract oil from crops like canola, camelina, safflower and sunflower.
