Chapter 507 The arrogant Noonda
Dan Jinkens walked into the narrow small garage office, and Hugh Grant sat inside, as elegant and calm as the media and the board of directors praised.
Only those who are familiar with him know that behind his calm face are fierce fangs.
In the years when Hugh Grant was the chief strategist of Roundup, Monsanto defeated many chemical competitors.
No farmer has gained benefits from Monsanto.
This is true all over the world.
Kinkens believes this time will be no exception. The farmers are not afraid of it. What is worrying is the power behind the farmers.
Hugh Grant waved and said, "Sit, Jinkens, what you should bring me is good news."
Jinkens held a stack of documents in his hand, He took out a few newspapers from the top.
"Anti-Monsanto farmer organizations have appeared in various states, and agricultural scientists are hyping up the anti-Roundup system to cause agricultural disasters."
Grant took it and glanced, and the characters on the cover were all familiar figures.
Basically, they are scholars that Monsanto once funded. "It seems that the competitor has made a move." Jinkens advised: "We should stop the sponsorship for these agricultural scientists."
Grant Nodded and said, "Just do what you said, give all the money to those who speak for us."
"There's another troublesome thing," Kinkens said. "The news from the EPA is that the World Health Organization intends to take severe measures against glyphosate and label it as 'possible human carcinogen'."
Grant's calm face finally changed.
Resistance is still a controllable problem, and this news is a complete bombshell.
"Activists are very well organized!" Grant looked at the agricultural scientists on the cover again, "like a shark smelling blood."
Grant stared at again Jinkens, "So, how are you connected with my Regulatory Commissioner, the EPA and the Ministry of Agriculture?"
Jinkens took out another document and handed it to Grant with both hands, "This is the federal government's approval document for the new GMO seeds."
Grant said with satisfaction: "Very good, then we will pass it." The final regulatory difficulties."
Kinkens asked: "Where is the World Health Organization?"
Grant said in a deep voice: "Mobilize all relations to prevent or delay the WHO issuing this Report! "
"In addition, continue to communicate with the EPA to let them issue the opposite decision and determine that glyphosate is unlikely to cause cancer in humans." "
"Finally, look for gunmen and institutions to write articles, proving that glyphosate is not dangerous if used properly."
Kinkens was a key figure in connecting with federal agencies. After Grant communicated with him alone, He just convened a meeting of managers at Monsanto headquarters.
Instructions were issued.
Nonta is the best-selling pesticide product of all time, and because of this punch product, Monsanto has been rich for decades.
Mosanto then puts the money RONDA earnings into the ‘disgustingly high, outrageous marketing’ budget.
At that time, any print that people received, from rural weekly magazines to various other magazines, said "Buy RONDA, Buy RONDA."
Driving through Missouri, farmers can always see billboards selling Monsanto products.
Now, Grant has chosen the same way.
Spend money!
Break a path with huge profits!
Grant has worked in Monsanto since the 1980s, and Rounda is a brand he is familiar with and loves.
He will never give up on the herbicide that brought him to this position!
However, farmers were tortured by Grant's favorite chemicals.
When Grant issued instructions, Monsanto executives ran around, and similarly, the anti-Monsanto wave of agricultural scientists reached a new climax.
Mark Locks is the kind of person the farmers trust.
He has been a weed scientist and state extension expert at Ohio State University since more than thirty years ago.
Like Professor Jansen of Arkansas, he also drove a Chevrolet truck sponsored by corporate supporters and visited Ohio's soybean and cornfields, amassing amazing miles.
This experienced and knowledgeable agricultural expert has a tall figure, gray hair, and a low and hoarse voice.
It sounds convincing when publishing serious advice on the latest science of weed control technology. "First of all, I have to admit that, like the work of most weed scientists across the country, my research has been supported by Monsanto's financial support for many years."
"But I'm certainly not a Monsanto person."
Dozens of scholars at the meeting burst into knowing laughter, state and federal university grants are declining, and agricultural science departments are welcome to big companies. funding.
Mark Locks continued: "I was on the front line when weed resistance began to appear in the federal early in the 21st century.
The earliest one was Little Puff.
Crop scientists at the University of Delaware discovered its resistance to glyphosate, but Monsanto did not agree with the findings.
Then there were amaranth vines and large ragweed, and more and more weeds had this problem.
I was not surprised at all, because humans would better never bet with Mother Nature, and this is exactly what Monsanto is doing.
The excessive use of herbicides puts great evolutionary pressure on weed species, forcing them to produce genetic mutations.
The same is true for terrestrial thorns, dodders and red fire ants, which is a typical Darwinian survival story.
The origin comes from the algorithms that Monsanto sells more and more chemicals year after year.
Things are getting uglier and Monsanto wants to be a weed-resistant 'goalkeeper'..."
At this moment, some of the scholars at the meeting stood up and then walked towards the stage step by step Walking away.
Suddenly, the person attracted the attention of the audience.
"It's Rowan Mick, what do he want to do? "
"I remember he was the representative of Monsanto, who invited him? ”
Rowan Mick was not at all stage frightened, and walked onto the stage and stood against Mark Locks. He shouted: "You obviously don't know what you are talking about?"
"What did Monsanto do wrong? "
"They solved the problems of farmers. Without an upgraded anti-Roundup system, the land of the federal government is still suffering from caltrops!" "
Rox said angrily: "But It caused more serious problems, farmers were pulled into a bigger trap, and dicamba did not pass regulatory review at all! ”
Roven Mickyan took the documents in his hands, sarcastic "But now there is a reply from the federal government!"
There was an uproar in the audience.
Rox also said it was impossible, but Rowan Mick handed him the document. In front of so many people, Rowan Mick would not have made any fraud.
What's more, you can find it at any time.
Roven Mick's lips curled up and observed everything on the scene, saying, "It takes a long time to get meaningful data for a brand new product.
Just There is no time to delay the situation of the raging caltrop three years ago.
The farmers continued Monsanto's technology at that time, and Monsanto also intended to provide the technology to farmers. Cooperation is fair and just! "
Rox felt that his professional ethics had been challenged, so he was furious, "You are not welcome here, get out immediately! "
Rovin Mick mocked: "You don't have this power, and I have to supervise you to prevent you from spreading rumors and slandering you wantonly! "
Locks said angrily: "We are talking about the fact that the volatile nature of dicamba will not only cause all the farmlands in the federal state, but will also give birth to even more terrifying weeds. ”
"But not now," Rowan Mick said. "I want to warn you that the lawyer is on the scene. Maybe we will send someone to the lab to review your work. Those who once challenged Monsanto all ended up tragic. .”
The scene was silent, Rowan Mick looked around with indescribable arrogance on his face.
Hugh Grant would definitely be dissatisfied with this scene. Such a arrogant and arrogant Monsanto is not the image he wants to show to the public.
But arrogance has been engraved in Monsanto's bones.
Like himself, he never thought of giving up Roundup and trying to get the upgraded anti-Roundup system to enter more markets.
Just like his new goal at this moment.
The most new ⊥小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小�
On this day, Monsanto held a press conference, and the Vietnamese government approved the use of Monsanto genetically modified products in Vietnam.
The anti-Roundup revolution spread to Vietnam.
After the news came out, media around the world reprinted the report as soon as possible, and they all said it was incredible.
As the biggest victim of Agent Orange, there is a blood feud between Vietnam and Monsanto.
One thing is very clear: Monsanto's financial resources are enough to trigger change in Vietnam.
But until today, Monsanto has shown no sign of its interest in participating in humanitarian relief related to Vietnam.
It is even exempt from paying for any fees for the Agent Orange Relief Program in Vietnam, and it is the federal taxpayer who pays for it.
Instead, Monsanto provided something else to the Vietnamese people: genetically modified corn seeds.
What is even more ironic is that the Monsanto corn seed ‘starting ceremony’ held in Ho Chi Minh City is particularly grand.
A number of huge tents were set up at the event site, each of which could accommodate hundreds of people.
At this celebration that lasted for several days, numerous farmers received Monsanto's seeds.
Ruan Honglan is one of the people who believe in it.
She transformed about 10 acres of rice fields into farmland specializing in Monsanto genetically modified corn.
She said: "Now I can feel at ease because I can worry less about the main weeds and pests in my cornfield."
After her, others followed suit.
A local Vietnam newspaper reported: "Monsanto's agency has trained more than 16,000 farmers in more than 200 locations."
The whole world was stunned by this.
The global anti-Monsanto and anti-GMO organizations seem to have been hit by a blow at this moment!
It's totally incomprehensible.
How did the Vietnamese let Monsanto go?
Not only did he let him go, he also brought him into the house again.
In fact, Hugh Grant has actually planned for this moment for a long time. Many years ago, Monsanto became an important economic partner of the Vietnamese government, academic circles, research institutions, and various universities through the Federal Ministry of Agriculture. .
The Vietnamese government chose to approve Monsanto's genetically modified products just right, which has restored some momentum for it in the federal government.
What is even more indignant is that the Federal Environmental Protection Agency, the Ministry of Agriculture, and even the President have made remarks that are beneficial to Monsanto, either positively or indirectly.
Finally followed, some authoritative institutions also began to support Monsanto.
"In the moment when federal agricultural production fell into darkness, it solved the problem of resistant weeds and allowed federal agricultural production to recover normally."
"Monsan is all biotechnology Pioneer! "
"Look at the crop yield this year, listen to the voices of front-line farmers, soybeans, cotton and corn have all been harvested."
"Things are moving in a good direction."
In the federal government, Monsanto's influence penetrated into every aspect.
With the sharp reduction in agricultural products of A San, the American agricultural product export market has rebounded significantly, and farmers of all sizes and big and small have achieved a good harvest.
In various states in the federal states, there have been media reports on farmers who have made money.
Fun, humorous, energetic...
This is in stark contrast to farmers who have not grown both Roundup and dicamba-resistant genetically resistant crops.
Victims and profiteers are heard one after another, leaving the entire federation in a state of separation.
At this time, Monsanto's global strategist published an explanation and advice.
"In order to control resistant weeds such as caltrops, continue to harm federal agriculture, Monsanto did take some radical measures, but this was a last resort.
We here advise the victimized farmers here , adopt the upgraded anti-Roundup solution as soon as possible.
Finally, the company is developing other categories of anti-rounda and dicamba crops.
If the anti-Roundup system solution is discontinued, the caltrops are likely to make a comeback, and the federal losses will be even heavier by then! "
Monsanto admitted his mistake, but seemed to have no idea. The farmers who suffered the losses were in tears.
The other major seeds and chemical companies were also cast in shadow.
The federal government's attitude is also clear. Compared with the harm caused by the new dicamba formula, caltrops are obviously more terrifying.
Tertrangos are infringed on all farmlands and crops regardless of species.
Mosanto's plan can at least protect the crops of Neronda and dicamba.
What's more, there are also the activities behind Monsanto.
At least, in America, the anti-Monsanto wave was stopped.
Hugh Grant is very satisfied with the company's recent performance and he has also received commendations from the board of directors.
Monsanto has survived the federal public opinion crisis, and next he has to start dealing with his opponents.
Codyva, Sinochem Saint Nice, Limagran, Bayer, Rasf, and the Little Kalami Tianhe Seed Industry in the North American market.
The biggest opponent is undoubtedly Codyvar.
This is a new company integrated into the agricultural sector of Dow Yinong and DuPont, inheriting the assets of Dow and DuPont.
Codyvar is definitely the one who stumped Monsanto behind the scenes this time.
In fact, with the volatile nature of dicamba, all seed companies pursuing the federal market are enemies of Monsanto.
Because it will kill all crops that are non-Ninonatal and dicamba characteristics.
Monsanto also has a dicamba formula that can suppress volatility, but it is not necessary. This time, what RONDA wants is monopoly!
The crisis of the Federation will be Monsanto's opportunity, and Nouveau will move towards new glory in his hands!
