Good morning all.

first of all I remind certain that a debate happens between several parties, and that it does not change if only one of the two parties is present.

GEGYX, you presume that I am part of a large group, I work for a small company of about thirty employees, today I am in a recovery phase of a family vegetable selection business that my chef (58 years old, heir to the start of selection work done by his grandfather, small agricultural producer). our techinques are not GMOs, but only from natural selection like our predecessors. we are only him, his wife and I work in front of large groups, we do not have big resources 1ha for our assessments and 500 m² of tunnels for our crossings and the maintenance of our parental lines.

I'm talking about GMOs because I know what it is, biotechnologies in general I know, so you presumed,
if you think i said the reapers must be and stayed in prison forget you words,
reminder: "when I hear that I have ALMOST want to tell you to leave them where they are IN TAULLE ".
GEGYX, my proposal sent by MP is still current, many subjects are in common between us and I like to discuss with interesting and constructive people. but at least answer me.

I greet you all, have a great holiday.

Good evening, I said what I thought deeply, compared to what I had learned.
Other people have also spoken about this ...
Glad you weren't the agent for a GMO group.
---
From MP, I have not received any.
In addition, for 3 days, my adsl was cut wildly ... And there are indeed 16 days of waiting, for a recovery. I am currently on paid broadband (it changes…)
I knew Morlaix well, for having spent two years as a health assistant and monitor at the colo de St Samson, of which I have excellent memories of the region, and of Brittany in general.

good evening everyone

All 2008 Monsanto GMO trials destroyed

Wednesday, August 20, 2008. For the first time, all the GMO trials launched in France in 2008 by the seed company were destroyed, the American group has just announced, following the mowing last Friday of plots of transgenic corn by anti activists -OGM.

...

"For the first year, 100% of the tests set up have been ransacked," said the American group in a press release, taking stock of its experiments in France. "A country which lets a handful of obscurantists trash its research deprives itself of all the promises of progress that this carries for the present and for the future, and this to the detriment of the citizens and consumers of this country", is went so far as to declare Laurent Martel, director of Monsanto France in a press release.

Agent orange, bovine growth hormone, PCB, terminator… Monsanto's “promises of progress” are chilling.

According to the reapers, the corn destroyed was of the MON810 type, a species of corn whose cultivation and marketing has been officially prohibited in France since February 2008.

...

Greenpeace is opposed to field trials of GMOs. Research on GMOs must be carried out in a confined environment.

The year 2008 will remain in the annals of the American multinational. Begun by the ban in France of its flagship product, the MON 810, it therefore continues with the destruction of all its trial plots in the open field. It is clear that the non-renewal of the European authorization to grow MON 810 would end the year on a high note.

The march towards a world without Monsanto continues and grows. It is up to everyone to join the movement.

I am also opposed to GMO tests in the open field for pollution, especially next to organic fields.
Research on GMOs must be carried out in a confined environment, always for this pollution problem.

If the subject was not so serious, the jeremiads of this mÔssieu Martel would be really comical ...
Is he aiming for an Oscar for his martyr performance or else?

India: Thousands of farmers commit suicide, ruined by GMOs
November 5, 2008


Andrew Malone met the relatives of Shankara Mandaukar, an Indian farmer who chose to end his life, unable to repay the debts he had taken out to buy GM seeds. Some estimate that 125 Indian peasants have also chosen to end their lives. Harvest after harvest, due to the vagaries of the weather but also because of the lower yield than promised by the seed sellers, the burden of the accumulated debt pushed these men into despair.

More than 4 years later, the show is still available for streaming on the official website (see 1st message on the subject): http://www.la-bas.org/article.php3?id_article=1059

France Télévision should be inspired by it (HS and stream links removed after a few months) ...
