world according to monsanto?

[furrowtickler]

Did anyone else see this program on the documentry channel last night? Sent chills down my spine.

[parsley]

I did not see it. Could you give us a snapshot?

it's on youtube in ten parts. go to youtube and search monsanto world. all the segments come up.

not the kind of stuff a glyphosate junkie wants to spend a lot of time thinking about. it's amazing when you think how much monsanto has changed grain production practices starting with one product. they exercise an awful lot of control and i expect it will only get worse. how many farmers (aside from organic) could farm without glyphosate?

We could all farm without roundup. We even may be far more profitable. I am not a monsanto supporter, but I think that GM crops have lead to a much larger food supply, thus reducing the price. I grow 30% more canola on average than I did 10 years ago. Corn and beans have had even greater response. These are the choices people make(quite possible not knowing all the facts).

As for the doc, the interviewer does not let complete answers to be told, and obviously only pursues her point. I always have more respect for an interview that is unbiased.
