More WIRE STORIES about this company

 PROFILE
IMC Global feeds the earth that feeds the world's crops. It makes fertilizers from phosphates and potash. It also makes feed additives for livestock and poultry feeds. The company has plants in the US, Canada, and the UK; it sells globally, with the US and China accounting for about 70% of sales. In response to low fertilizer prices, IMC sold its oil and gas and IMC AgriBusiness operations. The company in 1998 became the world's third-largest salt producer (rock salt, evaporative salt, and solar salt) behind Rohm and Haas (Morton Salt) and Cargill, but it has decided to sell that business to pay debt; it is also selling its chemical business. (Both salt and chemicals are classified as discontinued operations.)
