Missouri's Largest Peach Farmer Sues Monsanto for Losses From Illegal Herbicide Use

GeniB

Let's wish them success in suing them.The more that join in the better, I get the feeling that the worm is turning for this company. Just as we have heard that Pfizer has been fined 83 million for putting up the price of Epilepsy drug over 2,000 %.The horrendous greed and indifference displayed by Big Agri and Big Pharma may be coming to an end.Not before time. Fingers crosse that the NHS get their money back from them

This is a rather important step .

When Trump appoints the CEO of Monsanto as US Secretary of Agriculture farmers will be encouraged to use more.

Monsanto's Roundup Linked to Fatty Liver Disease

p.s. We are all probably getting our daily dose without knowing it

GeniB

The WHY?bit is because these powerful companies and their equally powerful lobbies simple by-pas due diligence and bodies that could challenge them They use their own labs,own scientists, own researchers.They put their own people on the boards of the FDA etc.. and voila.. What s surprise they get the result they want.
Trump was right in one statement he made. It is a swamp in Washington.Full of people lining their own pockets and caring little about the health and wellbeing of the country. Despite his claims he will 'drain the swamp' As a rip off business man himself I very much doubt if anything will change. the only good thing is that Europe will resist the trade deal

zoff

I think the world needs to resist the orange one. Please.

Not to be controversial but, one of the unforeseen (by some) consequences of Brexit will be that when and if we have trade deals with the USA and the like then we will be importing foodstuffs which comply with their regulations (minimal) and lose the protection of the EU regs. ie glyphosate and GE will become part of our diet in the UK!
