The company’s key mission is to help farmers feed the worlds growing population. It claims that by the year 2050, food production must double to feed an expected population of 9.3 billion people.…

    It was a cold wintry day in Creve Coeur as Mr. Hugh Grant (Chairman, President & CEO) of Monsanto sat pondering on the latest controversy that had hit Monsanto quite publicly in the past few days. It fact Monsanto had been always involved in disputes, legal quarrels and controversies ever since the company had ventured into the plastics industry in the 1940’s. The company had since expanded it’s portfolio of products to include DDT, polyurethanes, optoelectronics, synthetic fibers and LED’s amongst others. However, it was when they had pioneered the process of genetically modifying seeds that the company entered a new phase of growth that was to catapult them onto the world stage and eventually lead them to a virtual monopoly in providing GM seeds to farmers.…

    An expanding human population has led to increased farming and accelerated soil erosion. When the soil has a low capacity to retain water, farmers must pump groundwater up and spray it over crops. The local water table will eventually fall. This water depletion can impact native vegetation in the area and have been doing this for several years. Agroforestry is a method of cultivating both crops and trees on the same land. Farmers plant agricultural crops between the rows of tree that generate income during the time it take the trees to grow mature enough to produce earnings from nuts or lumber. There are four tiers to follow for successful agricultural crops.…

    Credited as the first the company to conquer creating seeds that can withstand drought, Monsanto has come a far way from simply producing saccharine. Thanks to the advancement of biotechnology they were able to generate these super seeds that used less water and land. Intentional or not, their business pursuit catalyzed an upward trend in improving the standard of living. Monsanto is also recognized for the resistant properties of their crops. The crops’ defense against harmful weeds, allow for farmers to make greater use of their land. Without the special qualities of Monsanto products, the farmers are often obligated to plant crops further apart to accommodate for secondary tillage. The advantage of being able to fit a multitude of rows is very simple. A surplus in food availability permits for the population to expand…

They are therefore indispensable for ecological, economic and socialsustainability in agriculture. Modern farmers rely on “integrated plant protection,” keeping agricultural crops safe from pests, diseases and weed in an eco-friendly way and withoutdetrimental effects on health.…
