Business Summary
Syngenta AG is a global provider of agribusiness products and solutions. The Company's major products include herbicides, insecticides and fungicides, and field crop, vegetable and flower seeds. The Company is the result of the demerger of Novartis agribusiness from Novartis AG and of Zeneca agrochemicals business from AstraZeneca PLC, and the combination of these businesses into Syngenta, which took place in November 2000. The Company's combined major research and manufacturing operations are located in over 20 countries around the world. The Company's product portfolio includes key marketed products, recently launched products (within the last three years) and products in development (with no attributed sales, all expected to be launched between 2000 and 2002).
