Pulse processing at the Food Processing Development Centre

Looking to incorporate pulses into food products? Food scientists and researchers at the Food Processing Development Centre (FPDC) in Leduc are making their mark on the Alberta food industry by investigating applications for pulse ingredients.
Pulses include dry beans, dry peas, chickpeas and lentils. The FPDC’s research has translated pulse processing and extraction technologies into innovative pulse based products such as lentil licorice, macarons, burgers, meat analogues, protein powders, nutrition bars and savoury snack foods.

I break down the real cost, payback, and financial performance of a grain bin using actual 2025 corn prices, real payments, and real math. We walk through when the bin paid, when it didn’t, and why timing matters when storing grain.

This isn’t theory — this is a full-year look at cost of ownership, cost of carry, harvest pricing, and test weight, all laid out on the whiteboard so you can run the numbers for your own farm.
