Monsanto sells units for USD 317M

Monsanto Co. said Tuesday that it completed its divestitures of the Stoneville Pedigreed Seed Co. and NexGen businesses, which now allows Monsanto to combine the Delta and Pine Land business with its existing operations and policies. Monsanto completed its $1.5 billion acquisition of Delta and Pine Land earlier this month. The deal received conditional approval in May from the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), which called for Monsanto to divest certain assets, including its Memphis-based Stoneville Pedigreed Seed Co. and its NexGen cotton seed brand.
