Why would the DOJ deny the sale to Deere, and then turn around and let AGCO buy it???
Australia has a federal department that does a similar thing regarding fair trading/competition IOT prevent monopolies.
A recent sale of a dairy processor co-op (Murray-Goulburn) to Sapuro (a Canadian mob) was approved but Sapuro had to sell a cheese factory in Victoria to prevent a regional monopoly.
