PARIS (Reuters) - European Union anti-trust chief Margrethe Vestager said on Thursday that farmers must continue to have a choice when buying seeds and pesticides after the merger between Bayer (DE:BAYGN) and Monsanto (NYSE:MON).
The German drug and crop chemical maker on Wednesday clinched a $66 billion (50 billion pounds) takeover of U.S. seeds company Monsanto.
Vestager added that the agriculture market was already very concentrated with a small number of global players dominating the industry.
