With Monsanto’s bid for Swiss chemical company Syngenta, we decided to take a look at the fertilizer and chemicals industry. The industry is going through a reshuffling of assets put in motion by Monsanto’s unsolicited bid for Swiss chemicals company Syngenta. The original bid was rejected flatly and a revised Monsanto bid that included a breakup fee of $2 billion, also has been rejected. As part of the deal Monsanto has offered to sell Syngenta’s seed business to make the merger acceptable to antitrust regulators. Here are some of the best fertilizer and chemicals companies TheStreet Quant Ratings says you should consider looking at. Number 3 is CF Industries Holdings.
