] has criticized Terra's plans to be bought by Yara, because Terra announced its plans to be bought by Yara only a month after CF had stopped its prolonged attempt to buy the company.
Stephen R. Wilson, CF's chairman, president and CEO, responded to Terra's response to CF's proposed bid as a "superior proposal," stating that "Any offer from Yara must be heavily discounted for the substantial risks and length of time associated with closing."
CF's bid has already been cleared by regulatory authories and the company expects it can close a deal in less than 30 days.
