Cutbacks Announced for Bayer Crop Science Frankfurt Facility

Bayer is reorganizing its Crop Science activities in Germany. As a result, the German-based company will discontinue its work in its Frankfurt location at the end of 2028. Bayer plans to sell a portion of the business and relocate other activities. In a statement, Bayer officials said the manufacturing of generic crop protection products, particularly from Asia, have oversupplied the market and driven prices lower. Regulatory pressures were also cited. This is part of Bayer’s five-year plan to ensure global competitiveness.
