GrainCorp did not consult ADM on its decision to appoint new CEO - chairman, (NYSE: GRAM)

Don Taylor, executive chairman and interim CEO of GrainCorp, said the company did not consult ADM despite it owning almost 20 percent and rumours persisting that the U.S. agribusiness would return with a renewed bid for GrainCorp in the future.
