  1. I notice about about these farmers are suing Monsanto for their GMO food crops are producing low yield than any natural food crops, and it’s not edible type of food at all because of genetic manipulation, is causing new form of diseases and infertility in women who have eaten GMO foods.

    1. blank Common Sense says:

      Studies have been done showing that organic food crop yields are not that far behind than intensive chemical crops. When we sift through data that has not been manipulated by university studies that are tainted with conflict of interests, I.e. they receive money to do studies in support of biotech cartels. Just like doctors used to get paid for support tobacco giants. We can also prove in many cases exactly where studies are total bunk because the biotech industry manipulate data t support the findings they want, thus, it is not science at all, not even bad science.

      When we look at yields of GM crops we can see they are not as good as biotech sector claims. In fact, normal pesticide sprayed non-GM crops have a better yield more often than not. This is something farmers seem embarrass end to openly admit in America and many also are in fear of speaking out. Many have already gone back to farming conventionally as they did before, just purely for a business reasons. This is of course not good enough, we know pesticides have caused more problems than they solve, diseases that are now far more resistant and also pests that are resistant the pesticides.

      We also have weeds and invasive ones that are a problem and crossing out some crops. The solution offered by the chemical cartels is to make new pesticides, of course, but this takes time and hundreds of millions in R&D. Of course, another option is to just blitz the fields so much that it will kill of crops completely and replant next season, or chemical blitz and continue planting but use roundup resistant crops, be damned with the toxic consequences. This about to happen not in America but places like England with crops like wheat that has black grass.

      This was all caused by the green revolution and ever increasing and continued use of pesticides. Traditional farming techniques avoid this by crop rotation and ploughing. Crop rotation will allow the soils to regain nutrients and prevents probelsm that lead to the one described above with black grass. There is real science backing this up but since the biotech/chemical cartels do not benefit from organic farming they use their political clought to do anything they can to prevent farming returning to traditional farming on a vast scale.

      Studies also show organic farming is sustainable and will feed the work, contrary to what science shows GM and conventional crops will do. Pollute the planet and continue to cause disease and the demise of this planet. We are now in the 6th mass extinction of species and scientists expect humans not to survive. I very much doubt any government will do anything to prevent this.

      1. That’s true of what you are saying.
