Monsanto shareholders reject GMO labeling and disclosure resolutions

Monsanto shareholders reject GMO labeling and disclosure resolutions

Shareholders at Monsanto's annual meeting on Tuesday overwhelmingly rejected proposals calling on the company to support mandatory labels for genetically modified foods and to assess its financial risks related to GMOs.
The two shareholder resolutions were never likely to be approved, but they are a sign of sustained pressure on Monsanto by activists intent on fueling the debate over GMO labeling and biotech crops.
