Greenwashing

Bayer-Monsanto is a major participant in the USDA's greenwashing Climate-Smart Commodities program.

"The U.S. Department of Agriculture and food giants such as Land O’Lakes, Corteva, Bayer, and Cargill are paying farmers millions of dollars to sow rye, clover, radishes or other crops after, or even before, they harvest their corn and soybeans."[1]
