If the material purchasing from farmer, it means if the material will treated as a agriculture produce then no GST on freight, else has to pay GST. Please refer notification No.12/2017- Central Tax rate and 13/2017-Central Tax rate along with amendments there on.

GST is exempted on the service of Transportation of agricultural produce by GTA. No requirement to pay GST under this case on RCM.
Agricultural produce means all produce and commodities, whether processed or unprocessed of agriculture, horticulture/apiculture, sericulture, animal husbandry, fleeces (raw wool) and skin of animals, forest produce [livestock, fisheries,] etc. as are specified in the Schedule or declared by the State Government, by notification in the Official Gazette, from time to time and also includes a mixture of more than two such products

There is no GST on the transportation of agricultural produce.
Now critical thing in this transaction is whether the "soyabean" here is covered under the definition of agricultural produce as per GST law. (refer to notification for definition)
I feel these particular goods if not mechanically cleaned, sorted, etc then shall be covered under the definition of Agri produce and shall not be subject to rcm on transportation expenses.
(Please note GST department officials are not considering such goods as Agri produce)
