allAfrica.com: Africa: Why I Turned From GM Opponent to Advocate (Page 1 of 3)



It is the control issue which gets me with GM. If farmers have seeds left over they normally us them the following year. Some small farmers actually collect seeds back from crops. Under the GM regime this is not allowed. Why? They say that they are continually modifying and last year's seeds may clash with this year's ones.

 Farmers must buy this or that whether they need it or not. Once hooked into this product buying,the prices can go sky high, which in turn makes the cost of growing rise and inevitably, the cost to the public will rise.At some future time when everyone is locked in,their seeds could be used as a delivery system for control chemicals just vaccines are currently being used to do..
