In the end they will make less money because the chemicals they sell won't be over sprayed and wasted anymore. That means less profit.
I know everyone likes to say Monsanto isn't evil and we wouldn't be able to feed the world without them, but they love the fact that farmers are forced to often use more chemicals than they need simply because there is no other option.
New innovations with drone technology and being able to target specific areas on a crop with chemicals and stuff like this is only going to eat into their profits.
And I'm sure they have an army of lobbyists lined up ready to tell Congress how the world is going to hell in a handbasket if we farm more efficiently.
