mosquito factory can make most profit I think(buy at min and sell at max). Been a while since I calculated it :p The teladi mosquitofac can make about 103k an hour, if you buy at absolute min and sell at max. If you build the suply factories for it you can buy at minimum, but I can't reccomenc building a spp, but shoulnd't be too hard to get those at low price :)


For good profit, build some of thsoe paranid soyerys factorys in boron space, teh sector with all those spps(solar power plants). Can't remember what theye are called. I had 3 of them and 4 sojafarms. You can sell teh food-stuff at max there and it'll almost always be sold out :)
You'll make about 50k an hour per soyery, the soyafarms will make verry little profit.

If you want to know, per hour you'll spend 10800cr on energycells(for beans and soyery itself), and you'll make 62400 by selling the soya husk at max price.

I believe that the sector you are refering to, is Queens Space. It's located 1 sector west of Menolowus Fronteer. It's 2 sectors east of Kingdom End.

Good advice by the way. And, I can add to that, put them in Split Space as well. Bogas Factories in Teladi/Paranid spacce. Teladi Oil refineries also in Split and Paranid space as well. Fantastic Profits. Navsat Factories in Nid Spacce. Or anywhere that will sell them!

bogas facs hardly made anny profit for me(in x-t that is. Main income in x-btf :p). Sold at max and bought at min, but didn't make a lot of profit. Teladianium did better(in paranid space)
haven't tried sunoil, but I'm guessing it is aorund the same profit as the soyerys.
