The
Wall Street Journal reports that the United States Department of
Justice is going to clear Bayer to buy Monsanto.
But
Canada and Mexico have yet to declare their intentions.
Europe
granted its approval earlier this month, but only on condition that
some assets be sold, including Bayer’s LibertyLink and row-crop
businesses and Monsanto’s NemaStrike seed treatment.
BASF
will acquire the LibertyLink and row crop businesses.
