USDA betrays American people, approves Monsanto's new GMOs

2015-02-25 07:39:50| Chemicals - Topix.net

In a sop to biotech and agriculture giant Monsanto, the U.S. Department of Agriculture has approved the company's controversial genetically modified herbicide-resistant strains of soybean and cotton, leaving critics to speculate that the corporate giant's influence within the federal agency won out over legitimate concerns about human and environmental health. The latest approval for a Monsanto-manufactured GMO is "simply the latest example of USDA's allegiance to the biotechnology industry and dependence upon chemical solutions," said Food & Water Watch Executive Director Wenonah Hauter, in a statement.
