Monsanto, the giant biotechnology agriculture company that created genetically modified corn, soybeans and herbicides, isn’t riding so high this year in the stocks department, as news comes in that its products aren’t working like they’d hoped.
According to the New York Times
- Monsanto’s newest genetically modified product, SmartStax corn, provides no greater yields than older products, despite being more expensive
- Weeds are growing resistant to Monsanto’s Roundup
- The Justice Department is investigating Monsanto for possible antitrust violations
Already, shares of Monsanto’s stock have fallen 42 % since January, and earnings for the fiscal year are expected to be well under projections.
This company represents one of the biggest threats to your future health, and that of the planet.
