Date:11/20/2007

e University every year for training. The Monsanto Exchange Program sends faculty, post-doctoral students, and undergraduates from Peking University to visit Yale University and those from Yale to visit Peking University where they can receive special training, participate in research, and attend workshops related to agricultural biotechnology.

As a global company 100 percent committed to agriculture, we at Monsanto believe it's imperative to continue investing in research that will advance the agricultural industry and help farmers be as efficient and productive as possible, said Hugh Grant, Chairman, President and CEO of Monsanto Company. Supporting the Peking-Yale Joint Center's work is one way we can help foster continued advancement and quality research. We're excited to extend our support of this important global investment.

Monsanto is a valued partner of Peking University, said Xu Zhihong, President of Peking University. The five-year sponsorship for the center and its financial support has greatly contributed to biotechnology development in China and academic exchanges between Peking University and Yale University. We look forward to continuing cooperation with Monsanto.
