The DowDuPont™ merger should be finalized now with the DuPont divestment this week of a portion of its Crop Protection business to FMC Corporation.

DuPont completed the divestiture of its Cereal Broadleaf Herbicides and Chewing Insecticides portfolio to FMC. In addition, DuPont divested its Crop Protection R&D pipeline and organization, excluding seed treatment, nematicides and late-stage R&D programs, which it will continue to develop and bring to market, and excluding personnel needed to support marketed products and R&D programs that are now part of the DowDuPont Agriculture Division.

DuPont also acquired FMC Corporation’s Health & Nutrition business, except for the Omega-3 business, in the transactions, which satisfies DuPont’s regulatory commitments in connection the merger with Dow, which was completed on August 31, 2017.
