Should be interesting, here's the link....

Science AMA Series: I'm Fred Perlak, a long time Monsanto scientist that has been at the center of Monsanto plant research almost since the start of our work on genetically modified plants in 1982, AMA.
byu/Fred_Perlak inscience

Hi reddit,

I am a Monsanto Distinguished Science Fellow and I spent my first 13 years as a bench scientist at Monsanto. My work focused on Bt genes, insect control and plant gene expression. I led our Cotton Technology Program for 13 years and helped launch products around the world. I led our Hawaii Operations for almost 7 years. I currently work on partnerships to help transfer Monsanto Technology (both transgenic and conventional breeding) to the developing world to help improve agriculture and improve lives. I know there are a lot of questions about our research, work in the developing world, and our overall business- so AMA!
