Bayer Expected to Announce Takeover of Monsanto Today
-----------------------------------------------------

German pharmaceutical firm Bayer is expected to announce a takeover of
agribusiness giant Monsanto today. Bayer has been trying to take over
Monsanto for months, but Monsanto has repeatedly rejected past offers. A
merger between the firms would create the largest supplier of seeds and
agricultural chemicals in the world.
