Yes, it’s true.\u00a0 GMO deception is spreading fast and soon agriculture will be jeopardised by transgenic pollination of GMO alfalfa.\u00a0 If you thought the economic crisis was bad, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet.\u00a0 How about famine in America.<\/p>\n
From OCA’s review of Genetic Contamination<\/a>:<\/p>\n Barack Obama, despite promising us “change we can believe in,” is unfortunately turning out to be just as pro-GMO as the preceding Bush and Clinton administrations, packing the USDA and other government bureaucracies with Monsanto men and biotech cheerleaders such as former Iowa Governor, Tom Vilsack, named “Biotech Governor of the Year” in 2001, now serving as USDA Secretary.\u00a0 Vilsack, notorious for flying around in a Monsanto company jet during one of his previous election campaigns, is now busy trying to get the court-ordered ban on Roundup Ready alfalfa lifted by issuing a new draft environmental impact statement (EIS) that denies or downplays the obvious environmental (genetic pollution and creation of herbicide-resistant superweeds) and human health hazards of GM alfalfa.<\/p>\n Alfalfa is the fourth most widely grown crop in the U.S. and a key source of dairy forage and hay. The first perennial crop to be genetically engineered, GM alfalfa can regenerate itself from its root-stock. It is open-pollinated by bees, which can cross-pollinate at distances of several miles, spreading Monsanto’s patented, foreign DNA to non-GMO and organic crops. Widespread GMO-contamination of organic alfalfa is inevitable if the Obama Administration successfully distorts science and ignores public opinion and allows Monsanto’s GM Roundup Ready alfalfa to be planted across the U.S.<\/p>\n Millions Against Monsanto Campaign<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Yes, it’s true.\u00a0 GMO deception is spreading fast and soon agriculture will be jeopardised by transgenic pollination of GMO alfalfa.\u00a0 If you thought the economic crisis was bad, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet.\u00a0 How about famine in America.
