Primary Evidence

"The third mistake is the most incredible: even as Dreyfus was humiliating them before the National Assembly, no one stripped the Willot brothers of their property titles. For a stunning reason: no one in the public sphere dared to buy out their share, for fear of being pointed out as the one who gave money to the Willot brothers. In 1982, they were ready to sell their shares to IDI for 64 million francs. A bargain. But it was refused. Politics came first: there could be no question of making a pact with the devil. To get around this obstacle, an implausible scheme was invented, known only to the Énarques. The state would put the company on life support, without taking legal control. At this point, the Boussac Saint-Frères Company (CBSF) was created, a private entity, to lease the industrial assets of Agache-Willot."

"ABCD group of companies, with ABCD standing for ADM, Bunge, Cargill and Dreyfus. The acronym, though, ignores the other three giants of the food supply: Glencore, COFCO International and Wilmar."
