BlissfullyAware @8lissfullyaware Source, Farmer here:
First off, this has been going on for almost 30 years. Monsanto started it all, with the very first "Round-up Ready" corn via DeKalb seeds (first commercially grown). They essentially won in court that they have a patent on life.
2ndly, with respect to corn and soybeans, only beans with beans, can the very product you produce be planted again to grow the same variety of plant (meaning taking out the soybean and plopping it right in the ground again to grow a soybean plant).
You take a kernal of corn off field corn and you will get what's called "volunteer corn" plant which might as well be a weed. That's why if you are either growing field corn (to be harvested for food, ethanol etc.,) or seed corn (to grow more corn).
"Seed corn production requires two different plants types, males and female. Female plants have the male part removed, while males plants have tassels intact to shed pollen onto female row silks. The seeds created then carry genetics from both parents." - hence "detasseling.
So now you have the basics... Many farmers, (every one I knew) would reuse their beans every single year. You save a few thousand bushel (dependin on your acreage) and have the beans cleaned and ready for planting the next season. You can imagine the plants and natural veriaties that developed all over the country in certain conditions. Evolution, production, yield, etc., etc., all making that 100+ year old variety as perfect for the farmer using them.
In comes round-up ready GMO garbage. As talked about before with polination, all it took was pollen to blow into the next field and Monsanto could claim the seeds / property was theirs. No more cleaning your own beans. No more producing your own seed corn. And how were they able to successfully sue everyone into oblivion that tried to tell Monsanto to f' off and farm like they have been for 100's of years prior?
Monsanto literally had secret agents that would infiltrate fields, steal farmers plants etc., to gentically test them to make sure their pollen was mixed with everyone's crop. We actually caught the goons in our fields several times. They are lucky they weren't shot. Regardless, every single farmer that tried to push back and went to court.., every single one of them lost their ass or worse, their farm.
So trust me in saying it's not the farmer that wants anything to do with GMO. Thank the government, the lobbyists, the politicians, the evil fvcks everywhere that did this. And worse, they are well on their way with absolutely destroying all the meat supply as well. 3:20 PM · Apr 18, 2024 · 22.8K Views
