SUGAR LAND--October 6, 2016--Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Despite lower expenses and higher corn seed volumes, including record volumes in the U.S., full-year net sales for Monsanto Company (NYSE:MON) (St. Louis, Missouri) fell slightly from those of fiscal 2015, mostly due to currency headwinds and price declines in agricultural productivity. But the company's narrower-than-expected declines were seen by executives and investors as a positive sign, going into a pending acquisition by Bayer AG (Leverkusen, Germany). Industrial Info is tracking $1.37 billion in active projects involving Monsanto.
