WASHINGTON, Feb 9 (Reuters) - Monsanto (N:MON) Co MON.N will pay
$80 million to settle civil accounting violations after it
allegedly misstated its earnings in connection with its
top-selling Roundup product, U.S. securities regulators said on
Tuesday.
The Securities and Exchange Commission also said that three
accounting and sales executives have also agreed to settle
charges in connection with the case.
