I couldn't find reliable market share figures, but I think Monsanto has nowhere near a majority of glyphosate market. The patent expired 25 years ago and glyphosate has since been made by many American, European and e.g. Chinese manufactures (BASF, Dow, Bayer, Syngenta, SinoChem, ChemChina, and whatever). I'm actually surprised if Monsanto's global glyphosate market share is a two digits percentage.
