Golden agri are not so diversify as Wilmar. Golden Agri are more on Oil Palm Cultivation, processing and packaging of cooking oil. Besides, they do involve in Oil Seed.
Whereas for Wilmar, i like their business model. Why?
It is because, they have their own fertilizer plant and brand. They produce their own fertilizer.
Besides, Wilmar have number of fleet to trasport their CPO. In short, they control the whole value chain starting from origination, cultivation,
transportation, packaging and consumer products.
Hence, they have better margins compare with competitors. Wilmar was the largest CPO processor and Oil seeds crushers World Wide and of course
in China. This will enable Wilmar to have a better bargaining power.
Recent partnership with Kellogg is very clear that how strong their distribution network was in China.
To me they are kind of similar, with sizable operation of soy bean crunching in China (but that's not good business, not too profitable, especially Wilmar for last few Q), sugar cane & sugar is very seasonal, but doesn't seems to be contributing much, the majority of profit still come from palm oil. Maybe you are right, Golden Agri might not be as diversify as Wilmar, but I think that's focus

.
Anyway, I hold both... plus Indofood...
