β€’ Chemchina – which acquired Syngenta in 2016
β€’ Bayer – which acquired Monsanto in 2016 (who then had to sell their seed divisions to: )
β€’ BASF in 2018 (to satisfy antitrust regulators)

While this (article) is about Big Ag and Big Food companies, it is also why we grow our own and SAVE SEEDS (especially Heirlooms). 🌱
