The kooks need to go back to worrying about UFOs and red rain.
I want them to sue the crap out of Monsanto.
RoundUp is cheapest and safest grass weed killer out there and these clowns are playing with fire.
Monsanto is evil.
Is not Monsanto wheat genetically designed to be sterile? Is the roundup-resistant strain developed in the last decade also sterile?
Monsanto is evil
it could be huge to all growers but why is everyone so upset about GMOs anyways?
What the hell?
Can we trust anything or anyone these days?
.
Humans have been altering the genetic inheritance of crops and animals for thousands of years. No one living in America has ever eaten “wild corn,” or “original wheat.” It’s all been modified. Genetically speaking.
They are messing with the elemental forces of Nature, what could possibly go wrong?
There will one day be a worldwide famine and Monsanto will be the cause of it.
There is a big push going on to build a coal terminal in Whatcom County WA. The developers of the terminal, SSA/Goldman Sachs held a public relations conference with grain growers across the Northwest, saying that grain was to be the other cargo to be shipped from the Gateway Pacific Terminal. The Chinese trade rep told the attendees that China would buy all the grain and soy beans that the farmers could grow. The SSA/Goldman Sachs people told the farmers that they could get the growing restrictions removed from the land if the farmers agreed to ship their grain to China via the Gateway Pacific Terminal.
Last week, we learned that someone tried to insert language in a bill that would do just that for Monsanto, lift all government restrictions on growing MONSANTO grain. So now, we not only have to worry about the coal, we have to worry about them shipping GMO grain. At least the rest of the world is wising up to threat of the GMO grains.
Not all governments are bought and paid for by Monsanto. Our government recently gave the corporation legal immunity in case their product is found to be harmful to humans. That should tell you something!
Monsanto fed my family for 30 years and my brother continues to work there off and on. It is a great company that is remarkably innovative.
Some folks here have mentioned bees carrying pollen. Winds carry it, too. There are also other vehicles (e.g., ourselves).
Wasn’t this the sort of thing that they guaranteed wouldn’t happen?
Is the wheat any good?
Does it have rat crap in it?
What a bunch of hooey....If the farmer planted the stuff during the test. it may still be growing in the ditches and borders (self seeding). If he cut any of it he would mix the two varieties. If he did not and is making a issue about the stuff that is still growing around the field, he should be looking at himself...He got paid to plant it by Monsanto.
If he saved some seed from the test thinking he would sell it to market years later and got caught, then he's a liar and a swindler. Monsanto would have no reason to sell him test seed.
So the answer is to use another weed killer that kills it. He probably asked Monsanto to provide it free since he did not kill it off the first time and they refused resulting in a major tiff over nothing.
The sad thing is.....I used to farm wheat when I was a kid. It make’s farmers look bad when they do this stuff and all this franken food nonsense is just ticking me off. They have been genetically manipulating grain for a couple hundred years, we are all still here....They just do it differently these days.
Maybe they should splice a human leg into the plant so that it kicks the farmers butt when he walks by.
Rosa DeLauro’s (D-Conn.) husband conducted research for Monsanto. In the recent past, she introduced legislation (”Food Safety,” ect.) that would make small farming difficult and legally dangerous while not slowing down companies like Monsanto.
Down with Monsanto.

Since this seed was only tested and never released to the market, I translate that to mean any farmer being sued for having unapproved Monsanto genes in their crop may now extend their middle finger to the plaintiff and leave the court room.
