This Is What a Farmer Looks Like

12. I totally agree with you.

Books have been written and could still be written on the dangers of GMO crops.
The high cost to the world of the way this kind of farming is done because of GMO is not only the toxic pesticides and the gene splicing that leads to the eventually death of beneficial insects and birds. It is also the intense use of oil to do all this kind of farming. Petroleum is used to make the pesticides, the fertilizers, the amount of gas used to propel these big farming machines. Transporting the crops for miles and the oil used to make dangerous products and to make ethanol which is a cause of engine failure and lower gas mileage. These people are no longer farmers and would not know what to do to be a real farmer. Most of the people who own farm ground don't know the difference between a kernel of corn or a soy bean. All they see is the subsidies they collect.
