Monheim (dpa) - The agricultural chemicals group Bayer is putting a company division with products for pest control and weed removal in the shop window.

The "Environmental Science" division, with annual sales of around 600 million euros most recently, is to be sold, the company announced on Wednesday in Monheim - Bayer's higher-level agrochemical division is based in the city on the Rhine Sales of 19.8 billion euros, so “Environmental Science” accounts for a relatively small share.

The division, whose headquarters will be relocated from France to the USA, sells herbicides and other products to specific professional users, whether forest owners, cities or industrial groups.

One area of ​​application are, for example, golf courses and green areas in parks.

Environmental Science does not have glyphosate products in its portfolio - these products should remain with Bayer in the long term.
