The decision by newly elected governor of Buenos Aires Maria Eugenia Vidal is being met with criticism due to controversy surrounding Monsanto's products.

Leonardo Sarquis, a former executive at Monsanto, has been appointed to the role of minister for agricultural affairs by the freshly elected governor of the province of Buenos Aires in Argentina, local media confirmed Tuesday.

Maria Eugenia Vidal won the post of governor during the first round of elections held last month in Argentina. Rumors had been circulating about the appointment of Sarquis to the post for weeks.

Vidal is a member of the right-wing Republican Proposal, the political party of president-elect Mauricio Macri, who ended 12 years of leftist rule by defeating Daniel Scioli during the second round of elections on Sunday.
