One of the companies that developed and supplied the US military with Agent Orange during the Vietnam war, and for a time made bovine growth hormones, Monsanto is now the largest seed company in the world, specializing in pesticide resistant genetically engineered seeds and pesticides like Roundup. And that's just the short list.
Opposition to Monsanto's practices is huge, worldwide. A Google search on Monsanto reveals millions of hits with further background info...just a sample:

AntiSec has been targeting Monsanto since last July, and published it's latest dump of internal emails and documents yesterday, with this message:
Monsanto:
Your continued attack on the worlds food supply, as well as the health of those who eat it, has earned you our full attention.
Your crimes against humanity are too many to name on one page, you have put over 9000 small-time farmers out of business by using your enormous legal team to bury them with your malicious patent lawsuits. You have continually introduced harmful, even deadly products into our food supply without warning, without care, all for your own profit.
Rest assured, we will continue to dox your employees and executives,continue to knock down your websites, continue to fry your mail servers, continue to be in your systems, and continue to expose your bullshit.
Expect Us
