Mark Castel, Cornucopia,
calls him the chief watchdog
for organic food.

4000 farmers.

I never heard of it before.

farming changed after world war two

Calls alfalfa a legume.

all farms were organic right after ww2.

then chemical agri companies came in...

modern way of farming were told that modern farming was the way.

Each farmer feeds more.

depopulated rural america.

used technology rather ...
to grow food.

He likely had pesticide poisoning...

farmers made their own connections...
he got better through eating food.

Small organic dairies become...

industrialization of organic...
economically...

organic food....lower..

higher level of nutrition from soil fertility.

people feel good about investing in organic,
a model that protects the earth.

feel comfortable about animal husbandry....

economic justice idea.

There is a real betrayal...
made enough noise...

The USDA more aggressive factory dairies...

approved use of alfalfa..

alfalfa base of land based food chain...

He invited Monsanto...but they said go fly a kite...

is it safe to eat genetically life forms.?

ones we have looked at are disturbing...

Very few studies on impact of human health.
on test animals...results are distrubing....

2009...on genetrically engineered corn,
a study....


METRO FARM BOOK

quotes Ben Franklin...
about making a living on a small piece of land...

What is this stuff?

Alfalfa plant is insect pollinated.

Little creatures will not respect the fenceline.

widespread production of this crop.

pretty much accepted...
it will all be contaminated.

Almost all of alfalfa seed grown in southwest Canada..
and northwest.

All will be GMO...

late GMO crops....started looking at it...

bovine growth hormone...
testing done on cattle...
animals were getting sick...
no human health testing...
done on meat injected with this hormone.
FDA let them get away with it.

syntheized from pituatary of the cow...

somehow genetically engineered would be safe..

animal studies on maize,...this is a plip in time,..
from transgenic....we don't know after a full human generation
how they will impact our health...

People tell us one thing or another...

Trust the government...they say it is safe...

independent scientists...

australian study negative reproduction.

Michael hansen...consumer...union.
fewer offspring in mice....
decline in offspring...
something going on...

Biologically active...
from one plant to another...
claim is ...does not survive human digestive system...
in mice. it does.

Genie in the bottle...we cannot call them back.

Who is Michael Taylor?

Had a professional relationship with Monsanto...

fought like hell against any labeling.
they know if consumers given a choice...
now high official in FDA...

is there a connection between GE release and Michael Taylor?

We understand, White House, David Axelrod personally involved
in getting in approved.

This admin not backed away from green lights from biotechnology...

break...

The release of genetically engineered alfalfa...

once the gene is released...
designed to withstand round up herbicide...
gene will transmit it to other plants.

How this gene moved through the food chain...

after the break...

Obama Admin letting the genie out of the bottle
and there is no putting it back.

When Canola released.
in Canada...it took over the whole crop.

ND farmer...giving up

Fred Kirsherman...organic farmer gave it up trying...

All corn and soybeans...intentionally being planted.

May not be benefiting farmers...becuase of dependence
of single chemical gylco....round up ready.

pigweed taking over fields...

time until genes will be obsolete..

already breading new generations new generations
of chemical use...

almost no alfalfa treated with any herbicide.
in north america treated with..
creating a market to create more and more herbicide...

8 per cent yield drag...
few pounds of alfalfa...
none makes any sense unless you are a shareholder...
they will have successful layers of other modified genes..

it will be a cocktail of altered genes...coming down the road...

9:38

Mark Wisconsin...Cornucopia...

phone number...

in late 20's pcb molecule....we can now go anywhere
on earth...and find this molecule in an mammal on earth.

what is Monsanto doing with this product?
question caller...

We don't know about results...

semen in arctic has pcb's...
do they reside in the soil...

round up gylcophate...
end with plants that arne't so healthy...

our ancestors knew...kosher practices...
encourages to not eat sick plants and animals...

widespread use of antibiotics to keep sick one alive...

Will there be any way to get rid of these genes?

In alfalfa...in five or ten year time...
we could eventually get rid of it.

these products move around a lot...
lose some of the hay banes.

some fields do not get mowed before...

break....9:42

watchdog of the organic industry.

Mark Castel...
checking this out...


http://www.cornucopia.org/co-founder-mark-kastel/

It will happen amazingly quick getting around the earth.

it will be a rapid distribution through the environment...

we do not know the traits that will be passed along

not all all doom and gloom...

we are still fighting.

click on action alerts...
send a message to the president...

will be back in court with
Center for Food Safety...

will impact the livelihood of farmers...

going to court...process is deficient.

contact environmental impact study...

lawyers at center for food safety.
We need listeners to stay with us.

introducing a novel gene type..

round up will not be around in
evolving genotype...

short term solutions...
for long term problem...

Government not...supporting...

post petroleum world order.

What is their pillow talk...
in the white house...

szetophrinic...

appointing some

USDA some enforcement...from some good people...

corporate control of our government.

Bob up next...

what is the phone number?

Who will own the alfalfa crop of the US?

Metrofarm...growing high specialty crops...
for money in Michael Olson book...

Mark Kastel....
orange d

Land o Lakes...
lots of partners...

they can take you to court...
and persecute you.

the multi

consumer for alfalfa...organic.

legume...

what are unintended...
consequences...
less buying it overseas?

ligitimate concerns...

will cut our exports to korea...

will hurt farmers...

not a logical step...

looking into clovers into other forage crops.

Can the organic meat and dairy industry...
in short term...

we have to police it...
we have to control it..

Linda...

institute of responsible technology...
Jeffrey Smith mentioned...

amazed how many

thousands of sheep died...
from BT corn...

gene transfers into us...
