Forage and amenity grass seeds: slight growth in business. 85-1 6 90 South America: Increase in sales, particularly for soybean, a relevant complement to the corn offering. Drop in sales for the first corn campaign in Brazil (safra), reflecting the current evolution of cultivated acreage for this crop.
