This excerpt taken from the SYT 6-K filed Jul 24, 2009. NAFTA, sales increased owing
to our leading market position which supported broad-based price increases
across the portfolio. Significant growth was recorded in Canada and
Mexico due to portfolio expansion as well as the strong performance of
established brands. In the USA, price increases more than offset
volume declines attributable to delayed corn plantings.
This excerpt taken from the SYT 20-F filed Feb 18, 2009. NAFTA,
sales growth reflected the significant increase in corn acreage largely offset
by lower planted soybean acres, the turnaround from the 2006 first quarter
production issues in corn and a one off positive effect of the final sales of
corn seeds containing non-proprietary traits in fourth quarter 4, 2007.
Vegetables and Flowers sales growth was also strong in This excerpt taken from the SYT 6-K filed Feb 6, 2009. NAFTA experienced strong sales
growth reflecting the expansion of the fungicide market for corn and wheat,
strong growth in TOUCHDOWN® and the
continuing expansion of Seed Care. AXIAL® achieved
excellent penetration in an expanded wheat market.
In This excerpt taken from the SYT 6-K filed Jul 24, 2008. NAFTA saw good sales growth in
a context of lower US corn acres and an increase in trait
penetration. Growth reflected an expansion of the fungicide market
for corn and wheat, strong growth in TOUCHDOWN® and the
further expansion of seed care.
This excerpt taken from the SYT 6-K filed Feb 8, 2007. NAFTA were slightly higher despite a challenging season in the USA due to a weaker farm economy, lower corn acreage and
drought in the south. As a result, sales of selective herbicides and fungicides were lower; insecticides were also lower following exceptionally high 2005 growth. Non-selective herbicides, notably TOUCHDOWN®, capitalized on the further penetration of biotechnology and delivered good growth. New products performed well including CALLISTO®, ACTARA® and the launch of AXIAL® in cereals. Professional Products performed strongly notably Seed Treatment led by CRUISER® and the launch of AVICTA®; growth in Ornamentals was augmented by the acquisition of Fafard in Lawn & Garden.
Sales in This excerpt taken from the SYT 20-F filed Mar 1, 2006. NAFTA field crops was strong throughout the year, the postponement of fourth quarter soybean shipments to align sales
more closely with grower consumption, led to lower sales growth. Vegetables sales benefited from the ongoing expansion of DULCINEA®, now fully consolidated.
Overall, sales in the region were 9% higher, 8% at constant exchange rates, with 6% from volume growth and 2% higher local currency prices.
A strong performance in This excerpt taken from the SYT 6-K filed Feb 14, 2006. NAFTA was led by a double digit increase in the USA with sales in Canada and Mexico also higher. The CALLISTO® range once again registered strong growth capitalizing on increased corn acres. With growth across the portfolio, including a notable contribution from the insecticides
KARATE® and FORCE®, Syngenta’s leading position in the world’s largest agricultural
market was reinforced.
Modest growth in This excerpt taken from the SYT 6-K filed Jul 28, 2005. NAFTA buoyant grower demand in the USA resulted
in strong volume growth across all product lines. Syngenta capitalized on its leading position in corn, led by the CALLISTO® range, including a very
successful first season for the combination product LEXAR®. Strong growth in fungicide sales was driven by the AMISTAR® range which capitalized on high disease pressure in a number of crops including fruit, vegetables, rice and wheat; the emergence of soybean rust in some southern states also
contributed to growth.
This excerpt taken from the SYT 20-F filed Mar 16, 2005. NAFTA sales volumes decreased by 1% mainly owing to the closer alignment of corn seed sales to the planting season. Soybean sales showed strong growth in the USA. Lower
royalties further reduced reported sales by 2%.
Sales in This excerpt taken from the SYT 6-K filed Feb 15, 2005. NAFTA sales of selective herbicides were stable in a challenging market whilst non-selectives continued to be affected by price
pressure in glyphosate in the USA, which offset volume growth. Fungicide sales growth was driven primarily by the success of AMISTAR®. Insecticide sales were
lower, due to a reduction in the sales of FORCE® and, to a lesser extent, KARATE®. Professional Products – notably seed treatment and turf – performed well. Strong growth continued in Mexico and in Canada, with the roll-out of CRUISER® on canola.
