Cargill and Continental Grain Propose Megamerger
Cargill and Continental Grain announced a proposed merger of their grain businesses to create one of the industry’s largest entities. The deal would combine Continental’s global grain storage, transport, and trading with Cargill’s extensive U S and international grain operations, with neither side disclosing terms. Regulators both in the United States and Europe are expected to scrutinize the merger as it would reshape major players like Archer Daniels Midland and accelerate vertical integration in farming and processing. Continental operates 65 U S facilities and 21 abroad, while Cargill runs about 400 facilities worldwide. The move comes amid industry consolidation and growing genetic engineering capabilities shaping the sector.
