Published time: March 14, 2013 17:38

Should Congress approve a proposition included in an agriculture bill up for vote this week, biotech companies like the Monsanto Company could win yet another victory in Washington.

The US House of Representatives is expected to weigh in on the Agricultural…

Monsanto offers farmers a wide range of wonderful genetically modified corn, soybean, cotton, wheat, canola, sorghum and sugar cane seeds. And you know what you can do with such seeds.…

Still unknown is who funded this original research (UPDATE, major funding was from the USDA) . But once the Epicyte gene, which irreversibly sterilizes humans who eat it, was patented, Monsanto and DuPont bought the company in order to "commercially exploit" the Epicyte gene. That means they had a…

The so-called "Big Six" agrichemical companies—Monsanto, Syngenta,  Dow Agrosciences, BASF, Bayer, and Pioneer (DuPont)—are sitting pretty.  Together, they control nearly 70 percent of the global pesticide market,  and essentially the entire market for genetically modified seeds. Prices of the crops they focus on—corn, soy, cotton, etc.—are …

Since the introduction of genetically modified (GM) crops into the food supply in the mid-1990s, the European Union has generally resisted allowing these crops to be planted in member countries. This resistance has primarily been due to the fact that there is much debate over the potential harm that GM crops could do to the environment and other non-GM crops, and the potential harm…

Brazil, the second-largest producer of genetically modified (GM) crops (after the U.S.), is the latest country to take a stand against biotech giant Monsanto, which could end up handing over at least $2 billion as a result.

A war has been waging against Monsanto in Brazil for nearly a decade, virtually ever since the country legalized farming of GM crops in 2005.

Since then, Monsanto has been charging Brazilian farmers double –…

Yes Monsanto is busy trying to contaminate the food supply.   You would think legislators would want to do the right thing, and ban Monsanto products but they are not.   They have too much of a grip on the federal level. 

I bring to you this week several articles all related to Monsanto.  The biggest hurdle was the block in Mexico.  At least one country close to our border has common sense. 

The…

(NaturalNews) Representing one of the most agriculturally bio-diverse nations in the world, India has become a primary target for biotechnology companies like Monsanto and Cargill to spread their genetically-modified (GM) crops into new markets. However, a recent France 24 report explains that the Indian government has decided to take an offensive approach against this attempted agricultural…

Synopsis:

Monsanto will launch this fall a GM sweet corn seed for farmers to grow. The corn will then be sold in grocery stores in the US and Canada. While the sweetcorn is being hailed as a "consumer-oriented vegetable product," it has been genetically modified to contain an insecticide and to tolerate being sprayed with Roundup herbicide. Yum. (Note: There is already GM sweet corn on the market in small quantities, but this could increase its…

The Diabolical company Monsanto should have been forced to ban this destructive chemical!  They are responsible for allowing it to be sprayed onto the Amazon Rain Forest.  Monsanto has to be destroyed as a company!  They are responsible for the  dangerous & deadly GMO foods and many other deadly toxic agents.

I couldn't paste the post onto 12160 as there is something odd preventing the post from being pasted on.  This information has to go far and wide to stop this…
