Years ago, a St Louis chemical firm turned seed giant said it had the answer to feeding a hungry world in the era of climate change. In 1996, that company introduced the first genetically engineered commodity crops, changing the face of global agriculture forever. Now, more than twenty-five years later, we’ll discuss what history can teach us about the promises Monsanto made and the future of food.

Professor Bart Elmore from The Department of History at The Ohio State University will present Monsanto’s Past and Our Food Future.
