Commenting on the quarterly results, Simon Wiebusch, vice chairman, managing director, and CEO of Bayer CropScience, said, ?Unusually prolonged and excessive rainfall impacted our field activities and product placement, resulting in significantly lower revenue from our Crop Protection portfolio. Despite this, our corn seed business continued its growth momentum, driven by competitive hybrids, strong execution, and favorable market dynamics. This quarter?s performance underscores our resilience and adaptability in the face of external challenges. We remain focused on preparedness and disciplined execution as we head into the Rabi season.?

Vinit Jindal, executive director and chief financial officer of Bayer CropScience, said, ?The company delivered a solid performance with profit after tax up 12% in Q2 and 10% in H1 year-over-year. This was driven by a favorable sales mix, stabilized input costs, lower provisioning for doubtful receivables, and disciplined cost management.?
