There is genetically modified produce in a lot of the processed food you eat, but this is the first time that Monsanto is taking fresh GM produce from the ground straight to your mouth. If it works out, there will be plenty more.

Monsanto's Roundup was supposed to make it easy for farmers to get rid of weeds, but it's working on fewer and fewer plants, including some monsters that can grow three inches a day and damage farm equipment.

Now that we've sequenced human DNA, we move on to our six-legged friends, whose genes might yield important and lucrative discoveries in many fields.

There is no good that can come of an experiment where the company behind nearly every genetically modified crop in our daily diets is allowed to decide whether its products are causing environmental harm.

Imagine if Apple tried to charge you every time you accidentally glanced at an iPhone on the street. That's basically the policy that Monsanto, an agriculture giant whose patented genes are in 95% of all soybeans and 80% of all corn grown in the U.S, enforces.

The often-vilified agriculture giant has made a deal that could actually do some good for sustainable development: a partnership with and an equity investment in algae fuel startup Sapphire Energy. What's going on?

If a Monsanto GM crop causes damage, Monsanto is now off the hook.

Yesterday, we published post discussing allegations from the Organic Consumers Association that Stonyfield Farm, Organic Valley, and Whole Foods broke away from the organic community to support "co-existence" with Monsanto's GE alfalfa. This is their response.

The USDA announced this week that it will allow the planting of genetically modified alfalfa. There's just one problem: it puts the organic meat and milk industries in jeopardy.
