BEIJING, Apr 15, 2008 (SinoCast via COMTEX) -- Agrium Inc. (TSX and NYSE: AGU), Canadian second largest fertilizer producer, announced on April 11, 2008, that a representative office was set up in Beijing.

The office, headed by Mark Wong, president of Agrium (China) Inc., would be responsible for Agrium's raw material purchase, fertilizer production, and sales in the country.

Agrium President and CEO Mike Wilson revealed that the company would expand through acquisitions and industrial consolidation in the Chinese market, instead of setting up plants. In the fields of nitrogenous and kalium fertilizers, Chinese producers will be favored.

Since 1994, Agrium has launched seven acquisitions, including taking a 19.6% stake in Hanfeng Evergreen Inc. in 2007. The latter signed an agreement licensing Agrium to use its sulfur coated urea technology, and distributes all the Agrium fertilizer in China, the sales of which has reached CAD 120 million.

In 2007, Agrium's net income amounted to USD 441 million. Its sales are predicted to swell by about 200% to USD 9 billion in 2008. In the future, the company plans to sell kalium fertilizers to China and import urea from the country.
