Introduction
When you think of Monsanto, the phrase
genetically modified
likely comes to mind. The Monsanto Company is the world’s largest seed company, with sales of $13.5 billion. It specializes in biotechnology, or the genetic manipulation of organisms. Monsanto scientists have spent the last few decades modifying crops—often by inserting new genes or adapting existing genes within plant seeds—to meet certain aims, such as higher crop yields or insect resistance. Monsanto develops genetically engineered seeds of plants that can survive weeks of drought, ward off weeds, and kill invasive insects. Monsanto’s genetically modified (GM) seeds have increased the quantity and availability of crops, helping farmers worldwide increase food production and revenues.
Today, 90 percent of the world’s GM seeds are sold by Monsanto or companies that use Monsanto genes. Yet Monsanto has met its share of criticism from sources as diverse as governments, farmers, activists, and advocacy groups. Monsanto supporters say the company creates solutions to world hunger by generating higher crop yields and hardier plants. Critics accuse the multinational giant of attempting to take over the world’s food supply and destroying biodiversity. The announcement that Bayer AG is acquiring Monsanto for $66 billion has intensified these concerns because the acquisition would create a company that would command over one-fourth of the world’s seeds and pesticides market. Since biotechnology is relatively new, critics also express concerns about the possibility of negative health and environmental effects from biotech food. These criticisms have not kept Monsanto from becoming one of the world’s most successful businesses.
This analysis first looks at the history of Monsanto as it progressed from a chemical company to an organization focused on biotechnology. It then examines Monsanto’s current focus on developing GM seeds, including stakeholder concerns regarding the safety and environmental effects of these seeds. Next, we discuss key ethical concerns, including organizational misconduct and patent issues. We also look at Monsanto’s corporate responsibility initiatives. We conclude by examining the challenges and opportunities that Monsanto may face in the future.
History: From Chemicals to Food
Monsanto was founded by John E. Queeny in 1901 in St. Louis, Missouri. He named the company after his wife, Olga Monsanto Queeny. The company’s first product was the artificial sweetener saccharine, which it sold to Coca-Cola. Monsanto also sold Coca-Cola caffeine extract and vanillin, an artificial vanilla flavoring. At the start of World War I, company leaders realized the growth opportunities in the industrial chemicals industry and renamed the company The Monsanto Chemical Company. The company began specializing in plastics, its own agricultural chemicals, and synthetic rubbers.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Digital Banking in the Cloud: How Citizens Bank Unlocked Their MainframePrecisely
Inconsistent user experience and siloed data, high costs, and changing customer expectations – Citizens Bank was experiencing these challenges while it was attempting to deliver a superior digital banking experience for its clients. Its core banking applications run on the mainframe and Citizens was using legacy utilities to get the critical mainframe data to feed customer-facing channels, like call centers, web, and mobile. Ultimately, this led to higher operating costs (MIPS), delayed response times, and longer time to market.
Ever-changing customer expectations demand more modern digital experiences, and the bank needed to find a solution that could provide real-time data to its customer channels with low latency and operating costs. Join this session to learn how Citizens is leveraging Precisely to replicate mainframe data to its customer channels and deliver on their “modern digital bank” experiences.

1-2History: From Chemicals to
Food
Monsanto was founded by John F. Queeny in 1901 in St. Louis,
Missouri. He named the company after his wife, Olga Monsanto
Queeny. The company's first product was the artificial
sweetener saccharine, which it sold to Coca-Cola. Monsanto also
sold Coca-Cola caffeine extract and vanillin, an artificial vanilla
flavoring. At the start of World War I, company leaders realized
the growth opportunities in the industrial chemicals industry
and renamed the company The Monsanto Chemical Company.
The company began specializing in plastics, its own agricultural
chemicals, and synthetic rubbers.

1-1Introduction When you think of Monsanto, the phrase genetTatianaMajor22
1-1Introduction
When you think of Monsanto, the phrase genetically
modified likely comes to mind. The Monsanto Company is the
world's largest seed company, with sales of over $15.9 billion. It
specializes in biotechnology, or the genetic manipulation of
organisms. Monsanto scientists have spent the last few decades
modifying crops—often by inserting new genes or adapting
existing genes within plant seeds—to meet certain aims, such as
higher crop yields or insect resistance. Monsanto develops
genetically-engineered seeds of plants that can survive weeks of
drought, ward off weeds, and kill invasive insects. Monsanto's
genetically modified (GM) seeds have increased the quantity
and availability of crops, helping farmers worldwide increase
food production and revenues.
Today, 90 percent of the world's GM seeds are sold by Monsanto
or companies that use Monsanto genes. Monsanto also holds a
70 to 100 percent market share on certain crops. Yet Monsanto
has met its share of criticism from sources as diverse as
governments, farmers, activists, and advocacy groups.
Monsanto supporters say the company creates solutions to
world hunger by generating higher crop yields and hardier
plants. Critics accuse the multinational giant of attempting to
take over the world's food supply and destroying biodiversity.
Since biotechnology is relatively new, critics also express
concerns about the possibility of negative health and
environmental effects from biotech food. A Harris Poll shows
that Monsanto is considered to be the fourth most hated

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

6. Costa Farms is a third-generation, family-owned group of
companies headquartered in beautiful Miami, Florida (aka, plant
paradise!).
The company sprouted in 1961 when the founder, Jose Costa Sr.,
purchased 30 acres south of Miami to grow fresh, vine-ripened
tomatoes in the winter and calamondin citrus in the summer. That
soon morphed into houseplants, and the Costa Farms family
started innovating and introduced new houseplants such as the
canela tree, orchids, and Cecilia Aglaonema. Costa Farms sells to
big box stores such as Walmart, Home Depot, and Lowe’s.

9. Pain Point
It’s time consuming, costly, and difficult for growers to measure
and regulate pH throughout the day and across the lifecycle of a
plant. Indeed, pH levels are one of the key factors in plant health.
Furthermore, pH levels in the water and nutrient streams change
constantly. To increase plant health via nutrient uptake in turn
promoting higher yield, pH needs to be more closely monitored
and adjusted in real time.
10. The Solution…
Microsoft Azure IoT Hub with pH
sensor devices on hydro water systems
testing correct pH levels. We used the
Adafruit Feather M0 Wifi and pHSensor,
Microsoft Azure and IoT Hub, Stream
Analytics, Event Hub, Azure Functions,
messaging via Twilio and SQL Azure.
