NEW YORK - Shares of agricultural chemical companies traded mixed on Wednesday after the Federal Reserve left interest rates unchanged.
In the sector, Monsanto Co. posted a higher fiscal third-quarter profit on strong demand for Roundup herbicide.
Monsanto also raised its full-year earnings forecast, but Goldman Sachs analyst Robert Koort said investors may have been hoping for a more "robust" revision.

DuPont Co. rose 15 cents to $44.11.
