Overview

Monsanto was a global leader in genetically engineered seeds and glyphosate-based herbicides. It pioneered commercial GMOs such as Roundup Ready soybeans and corn. The company’s products were widely adopted but also controversial due to environmental and health concerns. At the time of its acquisition by Bayer in June 2018 for $63 billion, Monsanto had a broad commercial portfolio but faced significant litigation over alleged health effects of its products like Roundup.
