Adding onto Dr. Manners's thread concerning Monsanto's efforts toward world food production, Monsanto acquired 100% interest of Aly Participacoes Ltda., which operates the sugarcane breeding and technology companies, CanaVialis S.A. and Alellyx S.A., both of which are based in Brazil. Monsanto also acquired the WestBred, LLC, a Montana-based company that specializes in wheat germplasm. In addition Inter-Grain, Australia's breeding leader, and Monsanto to share technology, and germplasm efforts which will be the betterment of both companies. I wish Monsanto would become interested in citrus. With Monsanto's technology who know what advancements could be achieved. - Millet (852-)
