Monsanto looses court case in France!

I dont see it quite as black and white as you hopper.

I have seen most chemicals we use become less effective with time and use.
Why will glphos be different given its enormous worldwide useage?

As a farmer I can see the agromonic and ecconomic advantage of GM but also the possible future problems.

I am not sure I will ever get the choice here as consumers still see no reason for me to have an easier richer life while, as they see it, they take part in a massive Monsanto experiment.

Off topic but you are posting here ianben so I hope you don't mind is I ask another question.

Canada is hearing about syngenta and some new hybrid winter barley varieties. Are you seeing these varieties in your area? If you are, any comments/experiences?

Canada is watching the hybrid barley varieties with interest although is easier with winter varieties (don't know why) and less applicable spring seeded types.
