Nufarm CEO Greg Hunt wants to pick up assets regulators may force Bayer and Monsanto to sell.
Crop protection company Nufarm wants to swoop on assets that Bayer and Monsanto may have to cut free as part of its $US66 billion ($87 billion) mega merger.
After handing down a better than expected profit result on Wednesday, Nufarm chief executive Greg Hunt said he was eyeing potential acquisitions on the expectation that global regulators would force his major rivals to divest assets.
"I think regulators will look at portfolio concentration and market share by geography," Mr Hunt said. "There will be opportunities for us to look at potential acquisitions that come as a divestment of those."
