Agriculture is at the heart of
India’s economy. Over half of
the country’s population is
engaged in or around it.
When farmers do well,
the nation does well too.
Agriculture is expected to
play a major part in India’s
economic growth. As farmers
sow seeds of hope, they sow
the dreams of improved lives
of the nation, as a whole.
We believe improving agriculture
improves lives. As a company doing
business with farmers, we take
responsibility to do our best to enable
them to yield their potential, their
opportunity to progress, and play a
growing role in the country’s growth.
We are committed to improve agricultural
yields of farmers. This combined with
market linkages and remunerative prices,
enables farmers to provide their families
with better homes, diets, health and
education opportunities to live a
better life.

Our Commitment to Sustainable Agriculture
OUR COMMITMENT TO
SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE
PRODUCING MORE, CONSERVING MORE, IMPROVING LIVES.
THAT’S SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE, AND WHAT MONSANTO IS ALL ABOUT.
As a nation, we depend upon
what farmers do and will
continue to. Rising population,
JURZLQJIRRGIHHGDQGͤEUH
demand, combined with
stagnant or diminishing
natural resources – land,
water and energy, have
given rise to the need to
enable farmers to optimize
agriculture productivity. Over
the next few decades, farmers
will need to grow as much
food as they have in the last
ten millennia to meet the
rising demand for food. Our
objective is to partner with
farmers to achieve this goal.
We do this by researching
and developing seeds, traits
through biotechnology, and
crop protection chemicals.
The challenge
Meeting the needs of today,
while preserving the planet for
tomorrow
Our commitment
Improve Lives by enabling
farmers to produce more
to meet present and future
needs, while preserving a
greener planet for the years
to come.
Producing more
Better farm inputs, higher farm
yield and marketable produce
are the foundation of farmers
feeding themselves and the
human race.
Globally, we are committed
to enabling farmers to double
their yields in our core crops
(maize, soya and cotton) by
2030. These yield gains will
come from a combination of
advanced seed breeding, inthe-seed biotechnology traits,
improved farming practices
and partnerships.
This fundamental shift of
farmers’ focus towards
producing more from less
will help secure the ever
increasing population and
demand for better food, feed,
DQGͤEUH7KLVZLOOKHOSSURYLGH
food, nutritional and water
security via affordable choices
for all.
Conserving more
Stagnating or diminishing
availability of land, water
and energy will challenge the
ability of farmers to provide
food and feed for all in the
coming years.
Monsanto India Limited
Agriculture uses a majority of
the planet’s fresh water. With
farmers facing unprecedented
challenges to continually
increase crop productivity,
farmers need to produce more
with less.
This is why we’ve
strengthened our goal of
doubling crop yields by
using one-third fewer natural
resources, such as land,
water and energy, for every
unit produced.
We are constantly developing
better seeds, traits and
improving farming practices
to enable farmers to optimize
natural resources and
equip them with tools to
overcome crop challenges,
such as weeds, pests and
environmental stresses.
Improving lives
Farmers seek personal
prosperity through improving
professional productivity. They
wish to progress and prosper
with healthier diets, greater
educational opportunities
and brighter futures for their
families. And this is enabled by
increasing yield and income.
Enabled by innovation.
So, whatever the world looks
like from where you stand,
the truth is that we are all in
this together.
We truly believe that
by working together, in
partnership, we can create
a brighter and more
sustainable world for all
of us. And it begins with a
farmer. Because...
Improving
agriculture,
improves lives.

Chairman’s Message
CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE
“My only desire is that India should be a
good producer and no one should be hungry,
shedding tears for food in my country.”
- Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel
Dear Shareholders,
For over 66 years, our farmers have been working assiduously

rural areas, linked around the farming economy and food, feed,
ͤEUHVXSSO\FKDLQ7RGD\DJULFXOWXUHHPSOR\VDERXWSHUFHQW
of our population.
A report by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) and
McKinsey forecasts food consumption in India to double by
2030, on the back of rising incomes, fuelled by a rapidly growing
GDP. There are a number of reasons for the above estimation.
First, the per capita income, up by 11.6 per cent in the last year
at Rs. 68,747 in 2012-13 against Rs. 61,564 in 2011-12, clearly
demonstrates that the country is moving in the right direction.
Secondly, when combined with urbanization and evolving
lifestyles, this will ultimately lead to a change in patterns of food
consumption with an increasing proportion of proteins, fruits
and vegetables. The biggest opportunity to improve lives and
increase agricultural output of Indian farms is to serve
the farmer.
There have been impressive gains in a couple of crops in
the past decade, yet the challenges and opportunities before
the Indian farmer are immense. Consider the realities of a
changing climate, stagnant or diminishing natural resources and
unpredictable weather. With crop yields far below international
benchmarks, India is yet to realize the optimum potential of
her farmers, her land, diverse natural resources and agriculture

productivity and farmers’ income. Thus, improving lives too.
The need of the hour is to enhance the viability of farming as a
profession, enabling Indian farmers to improve their yields and

encouraged. Research into better seeds, nutrients and
practices fostered.

The use of the latest seeds, knowledge,
practices, technologies and market access
must be encouraged.
Farmers, enabled with access to the world’s
innovative products and technologies
can make India a self-sufficient global
contributor in agriculture.
The Indian farmer, over the years, has been an entrepreneur. He
has been quick to adopt better inputs and techniques that work
for him. Information and technology are empowering the farmer
to make informed decisions about crops, seeds and techniques,
and is ushering in refreshed awareness.
Our Annual Report underscores the Monsanto vision for
sustainable agriculture and sows the seeds for our future
direction. We remain committed to our Pledge by innovating
products and services and partnering the public, private,
development sectors to improve agriculture, and improve
farmers’ lives.
We believe in sustainable agriculture, improving the lives of
farmers by enabling him to produce more with less. We, at
Monsanto India Limited, are proud to partner the farmers in their
progress. Through innovation in seeds, services, agronomic
practices and partnerships. Each season, India’s farmers reward
us with their partnership, now extending over four decades, and
we are humbled by the trust farmers place in us.
For, in improving agriculture, we improve lives.

and 2030 due to rising incomes, fuelled by rapid GDP growth.
As a nation, we expect farmers will meet consumer demand,
overcoming the challenges of limited natural resources and
a changing climate, while protecting the environment. As a
Company, helping farmers succeed presents an opportunity to
enable farmers to improve lives by increasing agricultural output
on farms, to feed and clothe the nation.
We put farmers at the centre, believing improving agriculture,
improves lives.
The seed and technology industry represent the potential of
yield-optimizing products, practices, and partnerships to create
shared value for 130 million farmers, by enabling them to produce
more while improving soil and water quality, meet the needs of the
user industry and nation, enhance rural incomes and create jobs
which catalyze economic opportunities around the farm, between
villages and towns, across sectors.
India’s crop yields are far below global averages. We believe
in India’s opportunity to unleash the potential of her farmers,
land, diverse natural resources, and agriculture science talent in
sustainable way.

farmers directly across States, and our Monsanto Farm AgVisory®
Service (MFAS) offered over 900,000 farmers timely, customized
crop management advisory from sowing-to-harvest, enabling
farmers to enhance yields and income.
We are also participating in Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs)
in Jammu & Kashmir, Odisha, Jharkhand, Maharashtra and Uttar
Pradesh, and in development sector partnerships for sustainable
agriculture to improve farmers’ lives by increasing yields via better
inputs, knowledge and market linkages.
The value created and shared from our innovative products,
services and partnerships enables us to improve lives in the areas
of sustainable agriculture, nutrition, education, human rights and
disaster rehabilitation. In partnership with eight NGOs, we have
improved lives of 143,000 farmer families through sustainable
agriculture; improved learning levels of 57,000 children; enhanced
food and nutritional security of 150,000 children via the mid-day
meal program; and supported 10,000 families through agriculturebased disaster rehabilitation in 2012-13.
Our people’s passion for farmers and agriculture, enabled by
a purpose-driven, collaborative, grassroots culture and matrix
structure creates a Great Place To Work®. It is humbling that
we’re recognized among Great Place To Work® in India and/or
India’s Best Employers in nine out of the last ten years. Our people
access cross-functional and functional specialist experiences,
aiding career lifecycle growth and development.
Harvesting the Future
Domestic maize demand is forecast to grow by 36 per cent by
2017, and to double by 2022, with demand outstripping supply.
Farmers choosing maize hybrid seeds have almost doubled maize
production in the last 11 years, yet India’s maize yields are half the
world average. By adopting maize hybrid seeds and leveraging
India’s unique geographical advantage, India can emerge as a
leading global exporter of maize to meet the rising needs of the
Far East.
To help farmers overcome the challenges of rising cost of
cultivation primarily driven by labour costs we are working on
Roundup Ready® and Yieldgard® in-the-seed technologies
WRRIIHUPDL]HIDUPHUVWKHFKRLFHRIGXDOEHQHͤWVRIVXSHULRU
insect protection, with convenient, flexible and effective weed
management, to optimize maize yields.
An improved regulatory environment will enable farmers to access
cutting-edge products and practices to optimize crop yields,
income, improve convenience, manage crop stresses (water,
pests, weeds, diseases), and reduce risks. India’s science-based
regulatory system is comparable with the best in the world, yet
can evolve in predictability. Research needs the encouragement
of regulatory predictability, so after research, testing and meeting
stated protocols, we can offer farmers new technologies. Farmers
are smart and deserve wider choices. Farmers will only reward
products, practices and partnerships which create shared value,
with acres on their farms.
It is high time our nation witnessed concerted action for farmers,
science, and economic growth. A progressive vision for farmers,
food and agriculture, which Centre and State Governments,
agriculture universities, private and development sector – all work
to deliver.
In keeping with our Monsanto Pledge, we will continue to engage

Past
Farmer Sadanand Sharma is popular in Devtha, a village of Bihar.
Born and raised in agricultural surroundings, Sadanand has been
acquainted with farming since his childhood. During his 20 years
of farming, he has witnessed the transformation his profession
is undergoing. To grow, and be competitive, thinking about today,
and the future, Sadanand made a few choices.
Present
“Progress of today’s farmer is
dependent on innovation.”
In rabi (dry) season of 2010, Sadanand chose to plant Dekalb®
maize hybrid seeds on 10 acres, yielding 4.3 tons per acre.
Identifying seeds as key to improvements on his farm, he chose
to increase planting Dekalb® maize hybrid seeds to 25 acres in
rabi 2011. And with improved farming practices, he raised yields
to 4.7 tons per acre. Today, Sadanand plants Dekalb® maize
seeds across 30 acres, which is more than 75 per cent of his
land holding. He has improved his life with sustainable yield
and income.

Overview
Maize is one of the most
widely grown crops globally. In
SURGXFWLRQWHUPVLWUDQNVͤUVW
in the world, followed by wheat
and rice. On the consumption
side, the majority of its use is
as animal feed; followed by
industrial use in producing
starch and other industrial
products; and in some
parts, food.
India’s maize overview
India is the world’s sixth
ODUJHVWSURGXFHUDQGͤIWK
largest consumer of maize.
The nation’s eight million
maize farmers produced
approximately 22 million
tons of a maize crop from 8.5
million hectares in 2012-13.
Over the recent decade, as
farmers increasingly chose
maize hybrid seeds, maize
production in India has
witnessed a quantum leap.
The country is witnessing a
maize revolution, as farmers
are choosing maize hybrid
seeds on 52 per cent of India’s
maize areas.
Farmers choosing maize
hybrid seeds have contributed
to increasing maize production
by approximately 93 per cent
in the last 11 years (22.50
million tons in 2012-13 from
11.15 million tons in 200203). Yet, India’s maize yields
continue to be half of the
world average, with India’s
yield at 2.47 tons per hectare
in comparison with the world
average yield of 5.14 tons
per hectare.
,QWKHQH[WͤYHDQGWHQ\HDUV
India’s domestic demand for
maize is forecasted to outstrip
supply. The country’s maize
demand is forecast to grow
by 36 per cent in the next four
years touching 30 MT in 2017,
and double within the next
nine years to touch about
44 MT by 2022.
If India can enable her
farmers to raise maize yields,
its unique geographical
advantage can enable it to
emerge as a leading global
exporter to meet the needs
of South East Asia.
