Monsanto Company and The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company, the leading marketer of branded consumer lawn and garden products, today announced the two companies have extended their nearly two-decade long partnership in the lawn and garden consumer market.

…Under the agreement, Scotts will pay Monsanto a one-time upfront payment of $300 million in exchange for a Roundup brand license, extended agency agreement and technology agreement.

SMG also obtained the right of first negotiation for MON’s Roundup business if MON ever decided to sell it.
