Final Thoughts

Over the past few months, Monsanto has been performing well above the market and has continued to grow despite struggles facing the economy. The USDA announcement of the expected rise in prices for agricultural crops this year bodes well for the company's short-term outlook since production levels of corn and soybean crops are expected to maintain last year's levels and increase by 8%, respectively.

However, farmers looking to cut costs in the long-term could hurt Monsanto's sales of some of their more costly products. The heavy investment Monsanto made in developing their biotechnologies should be well received by the market in the coming year.
