NEW YORK, May 14, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- AgFeed Industries, Inc. (OTCBB: AGFI.OB - News) (website: www.agfeedinc.com), a leader in China's premix animal nutrition industry and the first such company publicly traded in the U.S., today announced record financial results for the first quarter of 2007.

The following are some of the key performance highlights for the three months ended March 31, 2007:

Agfeed successfully closed a private placement with institutional and individual accredited investors on April 29, 2007. A total of $6,830,259 was raised in the financing.
Integration of Guangxi Huijie's business into AGFI an acquisition which was completed in December 2006, was successful. Huijie is expected to contribute significantly to the Company's financial performance in 2007.
We introduced the Airubao series of blended feed formulated especially for baby pigs in collaboration with Dr. Bud Harmon of Purdue University. We expect sales for this new product line to increase substantially in 2007.
On April 17, 2007, we announced that Mr. Nicholas Giordano, a respected securities industry regulator, former CEO of the Philadelphia Stock Exchange and former Chairman of the Stock Clearing Corporation of Philadelphia and Philadelphia Depository Trust Company, has joined AgFeed as a strategic Advisor to advise the Company on growth matters.

Mr. Xiong Junhong, CEO of AgFeed commented, "Our results for the first quarter of 2007 reflect a strong start for the year. Pork sales in China are reaching record levels as wealthier Chinese consumers demand superior food products, specifically meat products. We expect that AgFeed will continue to provide reliable and safe premix animal growth solutions to China's animal feed industry which in 2006 reached approximately US$38 billion in annual sales. We continue to expand our distribution channels, develop new products and provide superior customer service."

Mr. Xiong continued: "During our second quarter, our growth strategy is to deepen our distribution channels. We have seen satisfactory results from these additional marketing initiatives. We are comfortable that we will reach our previous guidance of $36 million in annual sales targeting 20% net income margin for 2007. As we completed strategic financing with strong investor interest, we expect to see substantial growth in our 2nd quarter ending June 30.''
