Syngenta Acquisition
In 2017 Hartung Brothers Inc. completed an acquisition of Syngenta Seeds Hawaii Operations.[2] Ed Attema, Syngenta head of Global Seed Operations, Production & Supply, stated, in regards to the acquisition of their land on Oahu and Kauai, “We are extremely pleased to have this agreement with Hartung Brothers for our Hawaii sites. The goal has been to have our employee talent base and facilities maintained and to contract work with the new owner, and that will be achieved.”[3]
