Failed Monsanto GMO Corn Pushed on African Countries with Help of Bill Gates
Latest News
Even if you aren’t opposed to genetically modified crops (with all this information, how couldn’t you be) and even if you like Bill Gates and his ventures (but with all this information, how could you), this latest should be enough to get you perturbed. And if you are anti-GMO and knowledgeable of the shady and questionable ways of the Gates Foundation, this latest story out of Africa will truly make your blood boil.
According to a recent statement from the African Centre for Biosafety (ACB), failed GM corn from Monsanto is now being pushed on African countries with help from the Gates Foundation. This maize, known as MON810, has been grown in South Africa for 15 years, where it “failed miserably”. But so as not to call the seed a complete waste, Monsanto and Bill Gates are now pushing it into countries like Mozambique, Uganda, Tanzania, and Kenya—countries that need agricultural help.
“Monsanto got the science completely wrong on this one. Independent biosafety scientists have discovered that the inheritance of resistance in African stem borers is a dominant, not recessive, trait as erroneously assumed,” explained the Director of the ACB Miriam Mayet. “Hence the insect resistance management strategies that Monsanto developed, and accepted by our regulators, based on these erroneous assumptions, were utterly ineffective.”
What this means, simply, is that pests in South Africa developed a massive resistance to the chemicals in the corn, annihilating the one prominent argument for GM crops, that it is resistant to insects. The corn was such a disaster that Monsanto willingly compensated farmers for the pesticides they had to spray on their crops to further fight the insects. Compensation from Monsanto? Weird.
Now, to not waste the waste of a seed, Monsanto has donated the MON810 technology to a “philanthropic” venture of the Gates Foundation and Monsanto called Water Efficient Maize for Africa (WEMA), and they’ve done it royalty-free.
For small African farmers with few resources, WEMA was seen as a positive thing, providing seeds that could withstand harsh conditions. But now, drought-tolerant varieties aren’t the only seeds being pushed onto the continent.
Kenya and Uganda have already begun field trials on MON810. Mozambique is changing their biosafety laws to allow the GM crop and WEMA is putting pressure on Tanzania to do the same. Currently, Tanzanian biosafety laws allow Monsanto to be held “strictly liable” for damages that could arise from the use of MON810; WEMA is understandably opposed to this. After all, they know the dangers associated with their crops even if they don’t want to admit it.
Interestingly, and frighteningly, MON810 has been genetically altered into a variety of Egyptian corn known as “Ajeeb Yieldgard” which has already been patented by Monsanto and approved for commercial growing while circumventing Egyptian biosafety laws. The Egyptian government itself has published peer reviewed studies indicating the risk of MON810 to human and animal health.
Put best by ACB researcher Haidee Swanby, “The scariest revelation is that GM producers and regulatory authorities are making it all up as they go along, while the massive biotech PR machinery spreads the myth that these crops are connected to feeding the poor in Africa.”
All part of the JEW WORLD ORDER COMMUNIST Dictatorship to cut down the World Populations.
.BAN ALL GMO POISONOUS FOODS
I believe genetically mutated food products are a plague on the planet and a crime against humanity. My ancestry is Jewish. Your ancesters are undoubtedly pea-brained bigots.
thanks, good luck to the farmers.
No surprise here. Aside from poor whites, the NWO really hates blacks.
You guys need to download Anthony’s new book. Its changed my life. I used to have long hair, after reading his book, i’ve cut my hair short. I now understand paleontology. I used to see a doctor about so called “medical problems” but now i use a crystal which big pharma refuses to show that it works so that means it works. His research is unlike anything i’ve ever read, i’ve even dropped about 200 lbs and feel great. Plus i’m now an award winning Investigative/Nutritionist/GMO journalist/expert. Anthony reminds me of a young less successful Kevin Trudeau.
Anthony knows so much about GMOs. Its like he’s a natural born genius. And he’s not abusing adderal.
Who the heck is Anthony and what relevance is it to this important article?
why have you cut your hair and whats this crystal you talk about
