Farming,
Food, and MONSANTO:
Genetic
Engineering
and
the Challenges for Organic Farming
under
“The Monsanto Administration”
with
Will
Allen
of
East Thetford, VT
Farmer,
Marine Corps veteran, peace activist and author
Recent
government approval for
planting
genetically engineered
alfalfa
(fourth-largest crop in the US)
and
sugar beets raises many questions!
As
a lifelong activist and author of
"The
War on Bugs,"
Will
Allen has broad expertise and a vision for
protecting
our soils, our plants and ourselves
in
an age of corporate dominance.
“Eating
Oil: The
War On Bugs sounds
a 'Pharm Alarm' about the toxic history of American
agriculture.”
