BNDES approved two loans totaling R$356.5 million for Dual Duarte Albuquerque Comércio e Indústria to invest at its Pedra Preta, Mato Grosso, facility. The larger loan, R$271.6 million, will fund a pilot factory producing cottonseed protein concentrate for animal feed, with protein content above 60% and low free gossypol; completion is planned for December 2027.
The plant could create a new high-protein feed ingredient supply, potentially adding competition for established protein meals once production begins. Its price impact is likely limited initially because this is a pilot project with a future completion date.
