Syngenta looking at different tie-ups, too early to predict result: chairman

>

Michel Demare said last month Syngenta was in talks with ChemChina, Monsanto (MON.N) and others.

When asked about the prospect of Syngenta possibly becoming a Chinese company, Demare said: "We are at a stage where we are looking at different combinations. I'm just saying it's one of them. Everybody has spoken to each other. I have said a few months ago that I believe within six months we will see some consolidation steps… it is too early to say how all this will finish."
