While Cargill Inc. continues to grapple with ongoing trade uncertainties that are hitting its North America growers particularly hard, the company is large enough it has been able to adjust its global commodities to minimize the impact to its bottom line.
The Minnetonka-based company’s size and geographic reach, along with the sale of two of its businesses, resulted in a plump profit of $1.19 billion, up 61% from a year ago, for Cargill’s fiscal 2020 second quarter, ended Nov. 30.

The Best Business Strategy For Surviving A Recession? Not What You'd Think.
For the past decade, the United States has enjoyed the longest economic expansion in American history. One thing's for sure, though – it's not going to last.
It's been a while since the U.S. had a recession, so it's worth reminding everyone that these downturns are a normal part of the economic cycle. Expansions lead into contractions which then lead into more expansions, and so on. The next downturn is coming, even if no one (not even the most brilliant CEO) can predict exactly when.
