Many farmers and people know about Monsanto company because of the Roundup Ready trait, which is a trait that gives in-plant tolerance to Roundup® agricultural herbicides. The trait was introduced to the market in 1996 and brought a whole new element to farmers. In 1996, farmers could now plant soybeans, spray the soybeans with Roundup, and poof- the weeds were gone and the soybeans were still as healthy as they were before they sprayed the field. Well, more than a decade later, Monsanto offers more than just Roundup Ready soybeans.
Whether it's a higher yielding soybean that provides a broad spectrum of weed control with the Roundup Ready system or a soybean plant that helps reduce trans-fatty acids, Monsanto has a lot to offer soybean farmers.
