Exclusive: U.S. seed sellers push for limits on Monsanto, BASF weed killer
America's two biggest independent seed sellers, Beck's Hybrids and Stine Seed, told Reuters they are pushing U.S. environmental regulators to bar farmers from spraying dicamba weed killer during upcoming summers in a potential blow to Bayer AG's Monsanto Co. Limiting spraying of the chemical to the spring season, before crops are planted, would prevent farmers from using the herbicide on dicamba-resistant soybeans that Monsanto engineered. The seeds are sold by companies including Beck's and Stine.

Bayer says can begin integration of Monsanto
Bayer can begin folding Monsanto into its organisation as the antitrust-related sale of assets has been completed, fulfilling final requirements by the U.S. Department of Justice, the German drugmaker said on Thursday. "The integration of Monsanto into the Bayer Group can begin following the completion on Thursday of the divestment by Bayer to BASF of certain Crop Science businesses with a total sales volume of around 2.2 billion euros," it said in a statement. Bayer already closed the deal, becoming the sole owner of Monsanto, on June 7 but had to hold off on the integration.

Analysis: Monsanto Roundup appeal has uphill climb on 'junk science' grounds - legal experts
Bayer AG unit Monsanto faces long odds on an appeal blaming an "inflamed" jury and "junk science" for a verdict of $289 million in damages to a man who said the company's Roundup weed killer caused his cancer, according to some legal experts. Last week's verdict ended the first trial over whether glyphosate, the main ingredient in Roundup, causes cancer. Monsanto, which says decades of scientific studies have shown Roundup and glyphosate are safe, is facing about 5,000 similar lawsuits nationwide.

Roundup cancer verdict sends Bayer shares sliding
Bayer (BAYGn.DE) shares plunged as much as 14 percent on Monday, losing about $14 billion (£10.95 billion) in value, after newly acquired Monsanto was ordered to pay $289 million in damages in the first of possibly thousands of U.S. lawsuits over alleged links between a weedkiller and cancer. After the verdict in favour of a California school groundskeeper with terminal cancer, Monsanto faces more than 5,000 similar lawsuits across the United States over claims it did not warn of the cancer risks of glyphosate-based weedkillers, including its Roundup brand. Monsanto, bought by Bayer this year for $63 billion, said that it would appeal against the jury's verdict in California, which is the latest episode in a long-running debate over claims that exposure to Roundup can cause cancer.

Monsanto Co is considering appealing a Brazilian court ruling obliging it to deposit in an escrow account the royalties related to its Intacta RR2 Pro soy seed biotechnology, the company said in a statement on Tuesday.

Brazil judge orders Monsanto to deposit royalties related to GMO seed
A Brazilian judge has ordered local units of Monsanto Co to put royalties related to a GMO soy seed technology in an escrow account, in a decision likely to hinder the U.S. seed company's ability to collect royalties from the business.

Out With the Old: S&P 500 Welcomes Twitter
The metaphor should be lost on no one: it's the first generational change to the S&P 500 and it must be hailed as the beginning of the end of the old-school companies and a new chapter for the new school of businesses and their ethos. When Bayer AG announced the acquisition of Monsanto two years ago, Monsanto was already viewed with skepticism as a company because of its creation of Agent Orange, the American scourge during the Vietnam War, and the pioneering work toward genetically modified seeds, the GMOs that so many millennials despise. How controversial, how reviled is Monsanto?
