(Reuters) – Fertilizer maker Mosaic Co’s third-quarter profit more than doubled as farmers seek out plant nutrients to maximize crop yields at a time of low global grain stocks.
The world’s largest producer of finished phosphate products reported net income of $841.7 million, or $2.42 a share, in the three months ended Sept. 30, from $371.9 million, or 97 cents per share, a year earlier.
