This article is devoid of useful information. For what purpose is the alfalfa being genetically modified? We're never told. However, the author ends her article by saying:

Are biotech crops safe to eat? Are Americans sicker now than 30 years ago? Are there any links between this food and our kids ailments? We may never know if Mr. Vilsack, the USDA and companies like Monsanto have their way.

Ah, I see. The author has an agenda. For this reason I will assume that the modification(s) Monsanto is engineering will prove beneficial. That's why the author, a supposed journalist, never explains them.

This is pure political BS from a chemicalphobe who also happens to a scientific illiterate. Just my humble opinion, of course.

Maybe people just want the choice, I’m one of them. If you want to eat GMO stuff..go for it, I have no problem with that. But when you take my choice away, I do have a problem with it.

I’m not sure what you are complaining about. I believe the article is pointing out that the restrictions will be non existent. To lay out tech jargon should be done by someone with that educational background. You can minimize the author, the article and GMO, that’s fine with me. But it still comes down to big companies and government taking away our choices. I thought we were against that.
