CHINA Agri-Industries Holdings Ltd, the country's second-biggest vegetable oil producer, said full- year profit jumped 46 percent because of rising consumption and higher prices.

Net income rose to HK$1.1 billion (US$141 million), or 32.2 cents a share, from HK$755.4 million, or 27.1 cents, a year earlier, China Agri said yesterday in a Hong Kong stock exchange filing.
