And it's all because Monsanto is not only at the heart of feeding a hungry planet...but also at ground zero for developing new corn-based alternative fuels like ethanol.

Why in four years, from 2003 through 2007, the company saw its sales jump nearly 40%, from $5 billion to $8 billion in 2007.

While 2007's numbers won't be in for some time, just look at a few of the company's achievements to date:

• Granted approval by China for a handful of genetically enhanced soybeans and corn seeds
• Expanded grain deliveries to Brazil
• Increased cotton yield in India by 58% while reducing pesticide use by 50%
• Increased quarterly earnings forecast for 2007
• Increased its dividend by 18%

As a result, the stock is not only up 100% over the past 24 months, but is also perfectly positioned to hand you triple-digit returns in the months and years ahead.

As a shareholder, you'll not only profit from every ear of corn, soybean, plant and vegetable that's grown to feed two-thirds of the world's population and power their cars...

...but also benefit from a company that's 100% committed to increasing shareholder value.

In my book, Monsanto offers you a ground-floor opportunity to profit from the convergence of three unstoppable trends. Over the next three to five years, I expect Monsanto to grow 30% to 50% a year.

But don't buy it yet. Be sure to check my updated buy price in this month's issue. With the market continuing to bounce up and down as if attached to a giant bungee cord, my target price and a little patience could add an extra 20% to 30% to your profits. If you can buy it at today's bargain price, you can book your world tour now and enjoy sky-high profits year after year.
