This article updates on GE trees developments worldwide and warns of the risk of GE trees, including GMO contamination spreading from GE trees into native forests, which would be irreversible. […] GENETICALLY-ENGINEERED TREES: A "CURE" WORSE THAN THE DISEASE by Rachel Smolker http://www.commondreams.org/views/2015/03/04/genetically-engineered-trees-cure-worse-disease
Two studies have found Bt cotton in India limited in terms of socio-economic and agroecological benefits. Bt cotton in low-yield rainfed areas is not economically viable, increasing the risks of farmer bankruptcy and suicide. […]
Item 1 ASIATIC COTTON CAN GENERATE SIMILAR ECONOMIC BENEFITS TO BT COTTON UNDER RAINFED CONDITIONS Romeu-Dalmau, C., Bonsall, M. […] This report examines research on the human health effects of synthetic agricultural pesticides and finds compelling evidence of harm. It calls for a phase-out of pesticides, and a radical shift to ecological agriculture. […] Evidence on how small-scale agroecology can feed Africa in a better and more sustainable manner than the industrial model of agriculture. In order for this to happen, a radical shift towards agroecology is required. […] A scientific study has found that goats fed with genetically engineered soybean had 40% less immune substance in their milk, resulting in significant reductions in the weight of their offspring. […] Item 1 Genetically modified soybean in a goat diet: Influence on kid performance R. Tudisco R., Calabrò S. Cutrignelli M.I., Moniello G., Grossi M., Mastellone V., Lombardi P., Pero M., Infascelli F. ( […] Climate-resilient farming communities can be built by tapping the rich repository of traditional farming systems which practice effective agroecological strategies and have strong social networks.
