AgFeed Completes $41 Million Financing
CHINA - AgFeed Industries, Inc, a market leader in China's premix animal nutrition and hog raising industry, has announced the completion of its $41 million financing.
According to CNN Money, the arrangement was advised by its financial advisor, Deutsche Bank Securities. It is expected to fuel organic growth of the company and propel earning this year.
