[2] Agricultural Solutions product offerings are comprised of five major global product lines: fungicides and biofungicides; herbicides; insecticides, bioinsecticides and acaricides; biostimulants and innovative nutrition; and seed treatments. However, the segment manages and reports sales on a regional basis, making it impractical to present such data by product line.
