not sure how this one fits into the world food shortage. i am trying to find out whether or not they actually market to agriculture. looks to me like they are tied to residential garden use and possibly ornamental production. any ideas to the contrary?

this is just flat out incorrect - very irresponsible of Stockpickr on such a micro-cap stock. They need to do some fact checking before publishing.

"Another stock that makes the World Food Shortage Plays portfolio is Eden Biosciences (EDEN - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr), a below-the-radar company that produces Messenger, a highly effective and revolutionary agricultural product.

If you talk to any serious horticulturalists, they likely love the Messenger product. Discovered at Cornell University's School of Agriculture, Messenger taps protein molecules inside plants that trigger certain responses in cells that help them grow, to make them resist disease and to produce additional flower and fruit.

The farmers love this stuff and they want their crops to grow; Eden, a micro-cap stock, is likely to benefit"
