Royal Agrifirm Group has signed a joint venture agreement in Algiers with Diam Grain, aimed at the local production and sales of premixes in Algeria. The agreement includes the construction of a new state-of-the-art premix plant that will offer high-quality nutritional solutions for the expanding Algerian animal nutrition market.
