« on: November 30, 2009, 02:22:25 am »
I'm currently debating the issue of feed GM feed to my pigs. I was of the understanding Geneticly modified feeds were baned in Europe but see on here some people feeding GM nuggetts

What's everyones opinions on GM feed. What brand of GM do yall use across the big pond. Is it Monsanto too?

I keep chickens, not pigs but they are fed on GM free feed and all future animals I have will also have GM free as well as my family!
May I recommend that you read "Seeds of Deception" by Jeffrey M Smith (It's an American book)
I'm sure you'll reconsider using GM after that.
Cheers,
Gordon.

We feed GM free.

Personally I am not so much against the idea of GM from an ethical point of view, I have mixed feelings on whether improving third world resources merits the technology, but I am against the thought of a mono-supplier Monsanto ruling the food world.

I seem to agree with Oakland.

I don't want to be policed my a seed company and don't like the fact my govenment allows it

Those of you who are morally opposed to GM ..........why
