董事总经理兼首席执行官 Doug Rathbone 已卸任，公司已开始在全球范围内寻找他的继任者。商业运营集团执行官 Greg Hunt 已被任命为首席运营官，并将在物色过程中担任代理首席执行官。
“Doug has shown an enormous commitment to Nufarm for the past 41 years, including his 15 years leading the company,” said Nufarm’s chairman, Donald McGauchie AO. “He has helped build Nufarm from a regional agrichemical business into a global leader in crop protection and specialty seeds. Nufarm has strong growth prospects in both the crop protection and the specialist seeds businesses which, together with the cost-reduction and continuous improvement program and reduction in working capital requirements, point to a strong future for the company.”
此外，McGauchie 宣布 Nufarm 的管理团队将实施自去年年底以来一直在计划的 $1 亿成本削减和持续改进计划，以及一项单独的计划，以积极减少营运资金，以实现公司 40% 平均净利润的目标截至 2016 财年末，营运资金与销售额之比。
