Many small farms save a portion of their crop for replanting the next year. These heritage strains of wheat are disease resistant for their area having adapted over generations in the same area. Modified Genes are a threat to these valuable seed stocks. Think Irish Potato famine, think GMO weeds.

Not good. When GMO first came out we were promised that they could never spread to nature. This turns out to be incorrect. We are still promised that they are not a danger, this has turned out to be incorrect. Now we are promised that there is no need to identify what food sources are GMO, even when there are studies that show health risks.

I find that the GMO camp is motivated by their wallets, not the survival of life on Earth.

Monsanto has become evil in deed.

Who needs higher yields? Let 'em starve!

Monsanto has become evil in deed.
