Dabeinong gains Brazil approval for key soybean product

Beijing Dabeinong Technology Group (SZSE:002385) announced its holding subsidiary, Beijing Dabeinong Biotechnology, has received approval in Brazil to plant its genetically modified insect-resistant and herbicide-tolerant soybean, DBN9004 × DBN8002. The approval, granted by Brazil's National Biosafety Technical Commission (CTNBio), follows previous approvals for DBN9004 and DBN8002 in 2023 and 2024, respectively. The company says the combined DBN9004 × DBN8002 event offers enhanced pest resistance and herbicide tolerance, providing superior traits for partners and soybean farmers. Dabeinong had previously secured planting permits for DBN9004 × DBN8002 in Argentina (2023) and Uruguay (2025). The Brazilian approval marks a significant step for the company's expansion in the South American market. However, commercialization in Brazil is contingent on import approvals from soybean-consuming nations.
