Bayer/Monsanto merger

If the U.S. Department of Justice approves the merger of Bayer and Monsanto, there will be two companies that will control almost all soybean seeds–Dow/Dupont and Bayer/Monsanto.  Look for higher seed prices and higher pesticide and herbicide prices.  

It would be great if non-GMO soybean seeds were available to small farmers, but with two giant companies controlling the market, it is doubtful we will see that.

Of course, the Justice Department under Jeff Sessions may say no to the Bayer/Monsanto merger.  

Yeah, right.


If you are a small farmer who voted for Trump, you really should have you ass kicked.
