***Planting the seeds of regime change: How GMO seeds and Monsanto/Bayer’s Roundup are driving US policy in Venezuela***

With Juan Guaidó’s parallel government attempting to take power with the backing of the US, the top political donors of those in the US most fervently pushing regime change in Venezuela have close ties to Monsanto and major financial stakes in Bayer. While numerous other Latin American nations have become a “free for all” for the biotech company and its affiliates, Venezuela has been one of the few countries to fight Monsanto and other international agrochemical giants and win. However, since that victory — which was won under Chavista rule — the US-backed Venezuelan opposition has been working to undo it.

Venezuela: Bayer/Monsanto bestellt das Feld für US-Außenpolitik


Explanation:
Habe Samen/Saat/Saatgut und GVO/Roundup hier einfach mal komplett weggelassen, weil ich ziemlich sicher bin, dass

a) (spätestens seit der Übernahme) ohnehin jeder weiß, wofür Bayer/Monsanto steht, und
b) die genannten Produkte/Produktarten ohnehin nur stellvertretend für das "gesamte Ansinnen" angeführt sind.

Alles in allem, nur ein weiterer Vorschlag ;-)

neutral  D. I. Verrelli: The source text snippet describes the agents of change not as the companies themselves (Bayer & Monsanto), but variously investors in those companies and the products of those companies.
