What Bluestar Adisseo does

Global animal-nutrition company, majority owned by China's Bluestar/ChemChina, and one of the world's largest producers of methionine, an essential feed amino acid.

Sells methionine and other feed additives in bulk to feed makers, with prices set by global supply from a handful of producers, so capacity additions and demand from poultry and pig farming drive results. A French animal-nutrition firm bought by China's Bluestar in 2006, it is now controlled by a Chinese state chemical group.

In one line: A French-headquartered Evonik Animal Nutrition, Chinese-owned.
