Jan 9 (Reuters) - UK competition watchdog on Monday
called for an in-depth probe into the potential joint venture
between Dutch animal feed maker ForFarmers  FFARM.AS  and
British firm Boparan.
    The Competition and Markets Authority said the undertakings
offered by ForFarmers and Boparan did not provide reasonable
solution to the substantial lessening of competition pointed out
by the regulator last month.
