The State of Arkansas is enforcing a new ag land ownership law that will require Syngenta to sell the land it owns in the state within the next two years or go to court.
Northrup King Seed Company, a subsidiary of Syngenta, owns a seed research facility on 160 acres of land in northeast Arkansas. Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders says ChemChina, the company that owns Syngenta, is on the Department of Defense’s list of Chinese military companies that pose a clear threat to the state and she says the stolen seed technology tells enemies how to target American farms.
