Why is Monsanto storing all seed stock in a warehous?e, Most seeds for mainly (agriculture reasons)you get now you need "special" fertilisers for them to survive and grow, Why can't we reproduce these seeds?. This is a big thing but nothing can be done, nobody hears about massive rallies against Monsanto (heard about one in the USA couple months or less ago) hundreds of thousands of people in this march but no media play.

you are right,a lot more than mets the eye.

media acts like they arent there.

Interestingly, Bill Gates, who is renowned for philanthropy own s a fair chunk of Monsanto..  oxymoron or what!!

Sad state of affairs isn't it?

The genetically modified grain, which is not deemed fit for human consumption, won't go to waste. They will probably sell it as animal feed, animals which eventually us humans will consume. Might as well just munch the GM shit from the outset.

Just another case of man trying to play God. Fuck with his creation, gonna pay the price.

We wouldn't have so many uninhabitable places on the planet if we didn't ravage it with war, famine and disease in the first place, not to mention raping the planet of its resources.

I just find it funny, that in this day and age, we humans seek to live longer, while we shorten the lifespan of the living environment that we reside in.

I have to disagree. I don't think GM food is necessarily bad for human consumption, in some cases perhaps. In other instances it has been genetically modified to be more vigourous in growth and potentially more suitable for human consumption.

Monsanto has been the topic of a lot of news lately, especially with the multi-country march that took place against Monsanto a short time ago. What can be seen as another big victory for public health, a French court found Monsanto guilty for poisoning a French Farmer. Paul Francois is a humble farmer who began experiencing neurological problems such as memory loss and headaches after being exposed to Monsanto’s Lasso weedkiller back in 2004. The decision reached 2012 for this case sets a powerful precedent that can continue to help raise awareness and dismantel the ignorance that exists around Monsanto and their products, including GMO foods.

In previous cases against the pesticide giant, farmers were unable to prove and properly link pesticide exposure to the side effects they were having. This is not the case for Francois’s,  as an expert opinion was able to determine the sum of the damages incurred and verify the link the Lasso pesticide and his illnesses.

After the case ruling, Reuters attempted to contact Monsanto’s lawyers but they decline to comment.
