American Seeds

American Seeds, Inc. is an agricultural biotechnology company that operates as a subsidiary of Bayer (following Bayer's acquisition of Monsanto). Founded in 2004 by Monsanto, the company was established as a holding vehicle to acquire and manage regional seed companies across the United States, such as Channel Bio Corp and Fontanelle Hybrids. Its primary business involves the development, marketing, and distribution of corn and soybean seeds integrated with advanced biotechnological traits. By leveraging a network of regional brands, American Seeds provides farmers with localized seed products enhanced by large-scale R&D in genetics and crop protection. The company plays a significant role in the commercialization of genetically modified (GM) seed technologies within the North American agricultural market.
