Monsanto could refine offer for Syngenta 

Monsanto, the US agri-group, could refine its offer for Swiss rival Syngenta, Basler Zeitung reported. The Swiss daily said an unnamed PR advisor has stated in the media Monsanto could refine its offer.

The Syngenta share closed this week slightly up (0.4%) which the paper said could be an indicator that an increasing number of investor believe Monsanto will be successful. During the week Pierre Landolt, Chairman of the Sandoz foundation and former Syngenta director, said he believes Monsanto will prevail in the end, the report noted.
