Farm Products: Archer-Daniels-Midland Company owns the largest revenue base; Bunge Global SA has the fastest current growth.
The industry itself · before any single company
How has Farm Products moved against S&P 500?
The line below covers 5.2 years. Over the most recent two of them this industry is 26% behind S&P 500. Earnings across its companies fell 60% on average over the last four reported quarters.

Participation is not spreading downward this month; the larger companies are still carrying most of it.
Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the industry line is an equal-weighted index of its 12 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the industry taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.
Sector relative strength · before individual stocks
Is Farm Products outperforming S&P 500?
Farm Products has underperformed S&P 500 by 4.3% over the last 52 weeks. Over 13 weeks the gap is a shortfall of 5.6%. 3 of 12 covered companies currently beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is selective. Archer-Daniels-Midland Company is the strongest against the sector itself at +21.6%.

Start with scale. Then earnings trajectory. Then business quality. Only after those three agree should price leadership carry much weight.
Bottom line

Archer-Daniels-Midland Company leads with revenue of $80,584 million, based on 10 of 12 comparable companies through Mar 2026.

4-Factor Sector Score
An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.
Archer-Daniels-Midland Company has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 82% evidence confidence.
Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. has stronger price confirmation than earnings confirmation; that is a research prompt, not permission to chase.
Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is guarded: positive earnings, positive 5–60% three-year EPS growth, and a positive P/E are required.
Decision use: Fill the missing evidence before acting; the ranking is deliberately pulled toward neutral.

This conclusion weakens if: Archer-Daniels-Midland Company's growth falls below Bunge Global SA's for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.
Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis. Growth is year-on-year, so seasonality does not masquerade as progress.

CAPEX is cash spent on property, plant, equipment and other reported capital assets. CAPEX intensity divides that spend by revenue; high intensity is a reinvestment signal, not proof that the reinvestment will earn attractive returns.

Capacity base is net fixed assets plus capital work in progress, straight off the reported balance sheet. It is not cash spent, so it answers a narrower question than CAPEX — but it is reported for companies whose cash-flow CAPEX is not published, which is why it leads here.

Before the conclusion · check the blind spots
What can make this comparison misleading?
This Farm Products comparison names 5 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. 1 of the 12 companies reports on an older date than the sector's freshest reporters, so its rank is marked stale. A high growth rate can still be a low-base artefact.
Keep these limits visible
A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
A high ROCE can be temporary or flattered by a small capital base. Read it beside margin, cash conversion and reinvestment.
The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
1 company has an older fundamental reporting date than the sector’s freshest reporters; its rank carries a stale marker.

Which companies are included?
All 12 companies in the canonical Farm Products membership are listed below, largest market value first — nothing is silently dropped, even where a company reports too little to rank. The charts above default to a selective view; this register is the complete set, with each company's own latest reporting date beside it.
AHEAD means the company is beating the index by 5% or more over three months. LAGGING, FUNDAMENTALS UP means it is 20% or more behind over a year while its trailing twelve-month earnings grew 20% or more. Both rules are fixed and applied the same way in every sector.
This comparison is built from the reported filings of 12 Farm Products companies, normalized to a common $ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Jun 2026 and market data through 2026-07-28. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.

These 18 answers restate the Farm Products comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 12 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Jun 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 2026-07-28. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.
Which Farm Products company is the biggest?
Archer-Daniels-Midland Company is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month revenue of $80,584 million, ahead of Bunge Global SA at $80,547 million. That covers 10 of 12 companies with comparable reporting through Mar 2026.
Which Farm Products company is growing fastest?
Bunge Global SA has the fastest revenue growth at 56.9% year on year, across 10 of 12 comparable companies. Fast growth off a small base is not the same as proven scale — check whether the rate holds across several quarters on the chart above before treating it as a trend.
Which Farm Products company has the best profit margins?
Village Farms International, Inc. has the highest operating margin at 73.5%, from 11 of 12 comparable companies. Alico, Inc. shows the biggest recent improvement, at +704.9 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.
Which Farm Products company makes the most profit?
Archer-Daniels-Midland Company earns the most, at $1,084 million of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 10 of 12 comparable companies. Vital Farms, Inc. has the fastest profit growth at -7.8%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.
Which Farm Products company earns the highest return on capital?
Village Farms International, Inc. leads on return on capital employed at 10.9%, across 12 of 12 companies. Read it beside the length of its reported history: a high return that repeats for years is evidence of a durable business, while a single high reading can be a small capital base or one good year.
Which Farm Products stock is the cheapest?
On guarded PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Dole plc screens cheapest at 0.22×. Only 5 of 12 companies pass the comparability guard, so this is not a sector-wide "cheapest stock" verdict. Cheap on a multiple is a reason to investigate, never a reason to buy on its own.
Which Farm Products company has the strongest balance sheet?
Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. carries the lowest comparable gross debt at $0 million, from 11 of 12 companies. Absolute rupee debt alone does not settle it, because company scale differs — net debt and debt-to-equity in the chart above carry more information, and a very low-debt balance sheet can also mean under-investment.
Which Farm Products company is investing most in new capacity?
Bunge Global SA reports the largest capital spending at $336 million, across 12 of 12 companies. Spending consumes cash before it earns anything, so treat the ranking as a diligence queue: check commissioning, utilisation and the return earned on the completed assets before reading spend as value creation.
Is the Farm Products sector beating the market?
