TheStreet.com 02/09/10 - 11:30 AM EST:
CALGARY, Alberta (TheStreet) -- Fertilizer concern Agrium(AGU Quote) capped a high-drama year full of collapsing end-markets and hostile takeover campaigns by saying the turnaround in its business had begun in earnest.

"The fourth quarter of 2009 saw the initial stages of recovery in the crop input sector," said Agrium CEO Mike Wilson in a statement similar to the one he gave when the company reported third-quarter results. "Agrium is looking forward to a significant recovery in the crop input markets in 2010," Wilson continued.
