    GMO dangers and animal miscarriages

    Also, one more thing to clarify. Because of the way DDT was applied and directed for use, it killed waaayyyy more than the target species, mosquitos. It has been however used in effective ways to control mosquitos in homes where the exposure to it has been minimized. It still kills non-target...

    Quote: Congratulations on making the most absurd statement in the history of the internet. Umm...hold on. Medicine Man, I appreciate your concern on everything here. There are a lot of things many people don't know about DDT. I still believe that it is a nasty chemical but, it has saved...

    Listen, I understand what you guys are saying. You have been sold into believing it is the best way. Correction, it is the best way you guys currently know. I am not an expert on organic farming practices. I do subsistence farming for myself which has allowed me to be less reliant on commercial...

    Quote: They have spent a lot and made a lot! Do you really think it is their intention to do so for the good of the world? If they did not stem from such a questionable history anyways, I would be willing to believe their motive was helping the world population. This is not the case, time and...

    CAST is a non-profit organization which needs income...donations to maintain it's existence. They are right with Monsanto on the genetic engineering. Why would they publish anything that would disclaim the biotechnology of Monsanto? Doing so, could put them out of work. If you were to ask me if...

    Quote: I hope you really don't believe this is just "flap". There are reasons for concern with this matter. Do some research, great links to information have been provided here. Take some time to educate yourself with what is really going on. We are being mislead to believe products are safe...

    Lazy J Farms Feed & Hay : Quote: Contrary to what has been written here, the use of Pest Resistant corn has actually helped increase trendline corn yield in the USA. I use traited corn for MY protection and the protection of my crop. With the use of the traited corn I no longer need to use...

    Let me clarify a little more about what I mean. Yes, the ACS is non-profit as an organization. I am not vilifying doctors and researchers in my statement. The direction of their research is large in part orchestrated by pharmaceutical, insurance, and hospitalization corporations. If the...

    Quote: Then why do farmers pay Monsanto for the seed? If corporate farming is only in it for the money (which I don't doubt) why pay? Just as a side note: have all the anti gmo folks checked their 401ks or other investment vehicles to be sure you don't "own" Monsanto or ADM etc.? Because...

    GMO dangers and animal miscarriages

    Quote: Genetically engineered crops are not the answer, there is no factual data that represents a significant increase in crop yields. Nothing I have written was "made up", they are actual events taking place! I don't like having to worry about what's in the food I must buy! Unfortunately, I...

    "Beartooth is correct, studies show no difference in the nutrient content between commercially grown crops and organic crops." BTW it's Bear Foot! Who showed you the studies? What laboratory produced the study? Who funds the research? All very important and thought provoking questions. The...

    GMO dangers and animal miscarriages

    Jim, I applaud your efforts to reduce your impacts and please understand that my attack is not on farmers such as yourself. I grew up on a farm and lived in what used to be a primarily farming community. There is no misconception on my part of what farming has become, impacts past and present...

    GMO dangers and animal miscarriages

    Thanks ChickenAl for backing me up here and those of you who have. I am not spreading hype or hysteria with any of what I am saying. To say the conventional crops and organics are nutritionally the same is nonsense. Organic crops use no chemical pesticides of any sort, use solid crop rotation...

    As for the BT in corn....definitely not natural!! BT was originally produced by soil bacterias. They took the gene code for the production of BT from the bacteria and spliced it into the gene code of the GE corn. This is by far the most unnatural form of BT production! Now, when an insect eats...
