Early this week Syngenta announced that it and Adama Agricultural Solutions Ltd have entered an agreement with Nufarm to sell a portfolio of crop protection products for $490 million.
Market analysts think soybeans will see a price rally before corn, and farmers should have a strategy in place.

Precision farming tools, from automation to variable rate technology (VRT) and others, are giving farmers new ways to make and save money.
