The listing is expected to take place in May, however, the group is yet to confirm a date for the share sale.
According to reports citing people close to the mayonnaise and margarine maker, Rusagro hopes to raise in the region of US$250m through the offering.
The company declined to comment on what the proceeds of the sale would be used for, although speculation has centred on the possibility that the group hopes to drive expansion through acquisitions.
