One of the original manufacturers of Agent Orange (AO), that did so much damage in Vietnam, has developed new genetically modified crops that are designed to resist a major ingredient in AO: the herbicide called (2,4-D). Now that staple crops have been engineered to be resistant to 2,4-D, it may soon be applied to U.S. land on an unprecedented scale.
The whole point of engineering resistance to an herbicide within a GMO plant, is so that you can "carpet bomb" an entire field, leaving only your "Frankenfoods" standing, without having to exert a fraction of the effort to grow organically and sustainably.
Similar experiments with Roundup-resistant crops actuallly promoted the evolution of resistant invasive weeds - making matters worse.
Our children need fewer toxins, not more.
