Glencore in talks on agriculture assets: Reuters

Glencore is in talks with a Saudi Arabian sovereign wealth fund and China's state-backed COFCO, along with Canadian pension funds, to sell a stake in its agricultural assets, sources told Reuters. Glencore is said to be creating a legal entity for the assets involved, expected to be mostly those inherited from the $6.1 billion purchase of Canadian grain handler Viterra in 2012.
