From a practical point of view, organic farming cannot feed this world. Shave several billion off the world population and try again. DDT? Probably one of the most important pesticides ever invented. Where did it go wrong? The "If a little bit is good, more would be better" syndrome. User error ! As a farmer who does feed the world, IMO, chemical companies, while not always honest in yesteryears R & D, play an important role in helping farmers feed the world which include all the city folk that would die without food. And don't get me started on the BS that is organic produce is healthier stuff either.
It's ironic that i read new threads here with references to Gibberellic acid, cytokinens and enzyme products that I have used for over 25 years commercially on food products (at a fraction of the price in the local hydro store). Growers here are just as interested in increasing their yields and quality as other farmers on other crops.
Am i for responsible companies? Of course. But believing a documentary from Sundance as gospel truth is silly. Bayer aspirin alone has saved more lives then all chemical combined have claimed. Bring a little logic to the table. Oh - and sometime i use a Bayer product called "Elite" for mildew with no ill effects what so ever. It can be used on food products up to 7 days before harvest (and thats in CA. where chemical safety has gone overboard to the extreme). Not all Chemicals or Chemical companies are bad. Be realistic.
I try to be. But Monsanto is much more realistic, which is why they have a steady stream of ex-execs and board members serving in the FDA and FTC, and vice versa. In the real world we call that "influence peddling", and it's not practiced to help improve peoples' living conditions.
Europe is largely resistant to Monsanto's aggressive marketing; less-developed areas - Asia, Africa, South America - put up token struggles and get steamrollered. Surely this must indicate something besides those uppity fucking French are at it again!
If you're cool with Monsanto and their tactics - more power to you. If you're not, and you'd like to help resist their encroaching dominance, please visit

You don't know what I have been exposed to or not. In fact, we used the precursor to agent orange as a weed killer on our farm in the 1960's. So in fact, I have been exposed. Nothing ever grew there up to 20 years later. But you are a kool-aid drinker so I will not engage you further here. I don't want you to hurt your brain.
This person you just called a moron is far more educated and has grown far more crops then you ever will. My point is and was, if you are relying on a Sundance documentary for you facts, then you are probably waiting for Obama to come pay your mortgage also.

Whoa - hold on a minute. Sundance is a network that happens to run a lot of documentaries & independent films. That's the beginning and end of the Sundance connection.
Ahhh no. Sundance has a Definite agenda. You can't seriously not know that. You didn't know that? Al Gore telling the truth too?
Give me a break.
