M$ of Agriculture


Rising Food Prices are triggering riots and political upheavals across the world. Africa and Asia are going to be the net losers in this price rise. Behind the surface, the global giants who are quietly taking over the world's food chain. These Global Giants based in US, Europe and Australia are going to be the net gainers in this turmoil.



The M$ of Food Business, Monsanto is one of the Global Giants that are going to benefit immensely. Here is an article surprisingly in the US mainstream media about Monsanto.

VanityFair writes "Monsanto already dominates America’s food chain with its genetically modified seeds. Now it has targeted milk production. Just as frightening as the corporation’s tactics–ruthless legal battles against small farmers–is its decades-long history of toxic contamination."
