Agriculture & Products

Our agricultural interests include sunflower oil, sunflower seeds and soybean meal: three products used widely across food and feed markets.

Overview

Products that move food and feed supply chains

Agriculture is the second sector in which Metin Investment Inc. is active. Our work centres on three products that come from two of the world’s most important oilseed crops: sunflower and soybean.

These products are traded internationally and used every day by food manufacturers, oil processors, bakeries and animal feed producers.

01

Sunflower Oil

Sunflower oil is pressed and extracted from sunflower seeds. It is light in colour and mild in taste, which makes it one of the most widely used vegetable oils in kitchens and food production.

  • Made from sunflower seeds by pressing and extraction
  • Light colour and neutral, mild flavour
  • Naturally a source of vitamin E
  • Traded as crude oil and as refined oil for cooking
  • Used for frying, cooking, baking and food manufacturing
02

Sunflower Seeds

Sunflower seeds are harvested from the sunflower crop once the flower heads have matured and dried. They are the raw material for sunflower oil and are also enjoyed as a food in their own right.

  • Harvested from mature sunflower heads
  • Two main types in trade: oilseed and confectionery (striped) seeds
  • Oilseed varieties are pressed to produce sunflower oil and meal
  • Confectionery seeds are used for snacks, bakery and toppings
  • Also widely used in bird and pet food
03

Soybean Meal

Soybean meal is what remains after oil has been extracted from soybeans. It is valued for its high protein content and is one of the most widely used protein ingredients in animal feed around the world.

  • Produced when oil is extracted from soybeans
  • A concentrated source of plant protein
  • A key ingredient in feed for poultry, pigs, cattle and aquaculture
  • Commonly traded in different protein grades
  • Traded internationally in bulk

It starts with the crop

Sunflower and soybean crops are grown, harvested and processed before their oil, seeds and meal reach food and feed producers.
