DuPont's agriculture segment sales down 10% in Q1 2015
Apr. 24, 2015
Operating earnings decreased by 18.5% to $1,174 million, as improved product mix in Pioneer, pricing actions taken in parts of Europe and Asia and productivity improvements were more than offset by the negative impact of currency, decreased volumes from expected reduction in global corn planted area, lower insecticide demand in Latin America and timing of seed shipments.
