FEED NEWS ROUNDUP

Cargill constructing feed mill in Efremov, Russia
COBHAM, U.K. - Cargill announced Nov. 15 that it has
begun construction of an animal feed mill at its Efremov
site in the Tula region of Russia, a further investment of
U.S.$10 million into the company's production facility. The
facility is expected to commence production in 2007. Its annual production capacity will be 250,000 tonnes.
Cargill acquired its Efremov corn sweeteners plant in 1995.
In recent years, the company has further developed the Efremov site by investing in a malt plant, an additional sweeteners

plant using wheat and a vegetable oil refinery, all of which will
be fully operational next year.
Cargill said the feed mill would benefit from its proximity
to these existing facilities and will receive almost all of its
raw materials from them. These raw materials will be used to
produce nutritional feed products for livestock producers. The
mill will produce feed for the Russian beef, poultry, dairy and
pork industries and also specialty value-added ingredients,
which can be added to customers' existing animal feed.

Cargill purchases Eagle Milling Inc.
CASA GRANDE, ARIZONA, U.S. - Cargill Animal Nutrition has signed a purchase agreement with Eagle Milling,
Inc. Cargill announced on Oct. 17 that it will purchase certain
assets of the feed milling and the pet and animal wholesale
products business.
Cargill said the transaction will enable the company to combine its nutritional technology and management systems with
Eagle Milling's strong customer base and market presence.
"Cargill is committed to the growth of its animal nutrition

business and sees great opportunity in the Arizona marketplace," said Matt Budine, general manager of Cargill's Pacific Coast animal nutrition business, which will now include
the Casa Grande location. "Eagle Milling is a successful and
growing business, particularly in the distribution of farm
store products and production of dairy feed. The addition
of Eagle Milling provides a complement of talented people,
strong brands and geographic distribution to support our
growth objective."
