       BUNGE LIMITED ANNOUNCES CORPORATE RESTRUCTURING IN BRAZIL


WHITE PLAINS, NY -- NOVEMBER 21, 2001 -- Bunge Limited (NYSE: BG) today
announced a corporate restructuring of its Brazilian subsidiaries. The
restructuring involves the merger of Bunge Fertilizantes, SA and Bunge
Alimentos, SA into a third subsidiary, Serrana, SA. The resulting entity will be
renamed Bunge Brasil, SA. The transaction is expected close before March 31,
2002.

The restructuring will reduce the number of Bunge Limited's publicly traded
subsidiaries in Brazil from four to two: Bunge Brasil, SA and Fosfertil, SA.
Bunge believes that the restructuring will simplify its corporate structure,
improve communication with local financial markets and increase liquidity for
minority shareholders.

Under Brazilian securities law, the restructuring will require that Bunge's
subsidiaries offer "withdrawal rights" to shareholders in its subsidiaries
affected by the restructuring, pursuant to which the companies will be required
to buy back and cancel shares at their book value. The company cannot estimate
how many subsidiary shares it will be required to buy back and cancel due to
shareholders exercising such rights. The company does not believe that the
restructuring will have a dilutive impact on Bunge Limited's earnings per share.
