China’s state-owned grain trading company Cofco Corp. said Tuesday it would take full ownership of Netherlands-based grain trader Nidera NV.

Cofco said it reached a “definitive agreement” to buy the 49% it didn’t already own from Cygne BV, a company controlled by the family that founded Nidera. The deal is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter, subject to regulatory approvals, Cofco said.
