We've had a breakthrough in our fight to stop the Monsanto-Bayer mega merger.

Bayer's CEO has agreed to meet with people who oppose the deal -- and that includes SumOfUs. 

He knows we can spook Bayer shareholders enough to stop this deal.

But we want to bring the people who will be most affected by the deal with us: farmers from Latin America and India, who have seen the impact of Monsanto's monopolistic ways first-hand. Combined with campaigners in Europe who are fighting against glyphosate -- the active ingredient in Monsanto's RoundUp -- we'll have a team he can't ignore.

Can you chip in so we can get everyone there and help convince Bayer's CEO to pull out of the deal?

If the deal is successful, this mega corporation will completely dominate the agricultural market, giving it almost total control of the most important aspects of our food supply.

And at the centre of Bayer and Monsanto's corporate agribusiness model is the indiscriminate, widespread use of pesticides linked to the massive global bee die-off.

That is why we need to stop this deal from happening right now.

But we can only make this happen with your help. Can you chip in to stop this mega-merger? 

Together, we were able to help stop the Syngenta-Monsanto merger last year because we showed that a corporation that big would have monopolistic power over farmers and the entire agriculture industry.

This new merger being discussed right now could be even worse.

Once a merger like this goes through, it's often impossible to undo the damage -- we need to act now to nip this merger in the bud.

Monsanto is giving us a taste of what it does when it doesn’t get its way. Right now in Argentina, it’s withholding new soybean seed technology from farmers -- the country’s biggest cash crop -- because it doesn’t want oversight from the Argentinian government.

It’s likely that this giant new mega-company will use its size to “influence” more governments and people with their shady tactics. Let's make sure they don't get away with that.
