* Monsanto becomes lord of the seeds*
Jan 27th 2005
From The Economist print edition
*MONSANTO, the world leader in genetically modified (GM) grains and
oilseeds, is buying a second blade for its plough: California-based
Seminis, the leader in vegetable seeds. Seminis made a small loss in
2003-04 and news of the $1.4 billion buy cut Monsanto's share price by
6%. But it may yet prove a smart move*
