Academies of Science finds GMOs not harmful to human health

[hadit]

Ah, but that's where your logic falls apart. Pesticide resistant bugs are created from the use of pesticides. Plants being naturally resistant to bugs means the use of LESS pesticides.

I dont know of many food plants being naturally resistant to bugs so that leaves a large gaping hole in your logic.

Perhaps you missed post #22? You modify a plant so it naturally produces its own pest control measures. That's being done now.

Perhaps you missed the definition of "natural"?

nat·u·ral
ˈnaCH(ə)rəl/
adjective

1. 1.
   existing in or caused by nature; not made or caused by humankind.

Of course. The plant produces its own pesticide, with no need for man to apply any. Your quibbling over the use of a word only serves as a feeble detraction from your main failure in logic. You don't need to add as much pesticide if the plant already produces it.

You just said man modified it? Are you retarded or is it just bad reading comprehension? Now explain to me again how pestcide resistant bugs develop?

I already told you.

Are you afraid to say the same thing in light of me exposing your weird logic loop? If you dont tell me again I will post it so everyone can see and understand why you are afraid to tell me again. What to do?

Thank God I finally fell out of that quote tree. I'm still getting used to getting notifications to posts that aren't even directed toward me. lol

You could try reading comprehension. But, since you seem incapable, here it is again. I stated very clearly that pesticide resistant bugs are created by the incorrect usage of pesticides. If you don't use enough, bugs survive that should not. Using too much, of course, simply results in pesticides moving off the plants, where they're needed, to places where they're not. Inducing the plants to produce their own natural defenses makes the decimation of the bugs easier while reducing the chances of runoff. Now, do you understand that, or do I need to type slower?

I could have sworn you said this.

Pesticide resistant bugs are created from the use of pesticides.

So if the plant produces pesticide naturally why are you modifying it? Silly people like you dont realize that you modifying the plant will eventually create a pest that is not affected. I submit my namesake as proof of this very concept.

If you're going to try to quote me, quote what I actually say.

"The incorrect usage of pesticides."

"Incorrect" is the operative term. Sheesh, why do I even bother with you?

Now, as to EVENTUALLY producing resistant bugs, that's inevitable. In case you haven't noticed, there is a constant battle going on between harmful parasites and hosts. In order to produce enough food to feed the world, we've been helping plants fight off parasites that eat the food we need. Making the plants do a better job at that without having to spray extra chemicals on them while they're growing is a good thing, at least hungry people think so.

I did quote you correctly. We know because you didnt quote yourself formally and you didnt report me for incorrectly quoting you. I've made you look like a fool and exposed your puerile logic. Thanks for playing.

[TRIGGER WARNING: CONSERVATIVE WITH AN OPINION HERE!!!]

Unless the modified genetics in question have been found to secrete some kind of poisonous biological fluid into what would otherwise simply be an ear of corn, I'm not convinced.

"GMO"-- or hybrid corn-- is what saved the dust bowl.

Every domesticated dog on the face of the Earth is a result of artificial (human) genetic selection. Without GMO dogs, the Koreans would have tragically starved to death thousands of years ago.

That being said, I grow as much organic tomatoes, cucumbers, spinach, and peppers that I can to supplement good eating habits, along with my organic [blue] chicken eggs and organic Katahdin.

It's the pesticides and ammonium-based fertilizers that I'm worried about.

Ironically, GMO's can help reduce the need for pesticides and fertilizers.

Except they dont. Monsanto has you guys literally eating out of the palm of their hands. I guess that means more profits at your expense.

Herbicide-Resistant 'Super Weeds' Increasingly Plaguing Farmers

Sorry to tell you this but Bayer is seeking to buy up the Monsato seed production branch. What will you whine about if that comes through?

Farmers used to be able to grow their own seeds.

Some still do and sell them.

Good for them; may the force be at their side!

Profit margins for pesticide and fertilizer manufacturers, not for seed producers.

The same people making pesticides and fertilizers are the same people making GMO seeds.

Yet they produce crops that don't require as much.

Worldwide, insects are a major cause of crop damage and yield loss, requiring farmers to often make multiple applications of chemical pesticides to combat insect pests. To protect the yield potential of plants and significantly decrease pesticides use, insect-resistant traits in transgenic plants using Bt(Bacillus thuringiensis) were developed.

Crops with a Bt trait have been modified to produce a protein that is toxic to various forms of insect larvae. Bt proteins have long been used as topical sprays in conventional and organic agriculture because they are effective and can be used safely. Crops that are genetically engineered to carry the Bt trait allow farmers to protect their crops while eliminating or significantly decreasing the amount of pesticides sprayed.

Global Insect Resistance Management

If I find pests on my plants, I mix mineral oil with water and give it a good spray. Problem solved.

Pests in the soil? Diatomaceous Earth. Bye-bye pests and their eggs, hello added nutrients!

There are a dozen more completely natural remedies out there, which can be bought at your local grocery store.


Monsanto isn't the real problem here. People who don't know jack schnitzel about growing food are.

So you mix mineral oil with pesticides and wash it into the soil.
Do you also wash off your driveway with oil cutting products?

Nature washes my gravel driveway for me. The rest of that, I have no idea what you just said. lol

Then you are dense.
When you wash something the contaminants are only shifted from one place to another.
The trick is not to add to the problem by adding more
Btw nature washing your driveway has fuck all to do with the oil and other shit your car leaves behind.

Oh well. So much for HADITs pesticide reducing argument.

Limits Sought on GMO Corn as Pest Resistance Grows
