Food Biotechnology - Monsanto

Welcome to Monsanto's website about food biotechnology in the UK and around the world.

Monsanto provides integrated, technology-based agricultural solutions for growers and downstream customers in agricultural markets. The company's corporate headquarters are located in St. Louis.

We're excited about the potential for genetically modified food to contribute to a better environment and a sustainable, plentiful, and healthy food supply. We recognise, however, that many consumers have genuine concerns about food biotechnology and its impact on their families.

This site is intended to promote a deeper understanding of food biotechnology by providing visitors with access to the full range of thought, opinion, and background information about this important subject.

We want to hear your views and answer your questions. Please explore, participate, and tell us what you think.
