Monsanto we have used substances poisonous for humans and animals in the treatment of their own seeds? The alarm was born from the online publication ofimage of a Monsanto seed pack by Food Warrior Network. According to what is reported on the package, the seeds have been treated with poisonous substances and they must not be used for human consumption, for feed or for the production of oil.
How do you explain Natural News, it would be just one of several images published on the web aimed at illustrating the real dangers associated with GM seeds. The seeds of the pack at the center of the matter are produced and offered for sale by Monsanto India Limited.
Those who argue that GM seeds do not present any differences or health hazards compared to natural seeds, maybe he should change his mind. On the web and on social networks, discussions are open. From the image posted on Facebook, it looks just like that it is the multinationals themselves that admit the risks associated with GMOs and the treatment of seeds with harmful substances.
As reported by Natural News, different types of commercial seeds - both GMO and conventional - report Warnings which prohibit the use of seeds treated with toxic substances for human and animal nutrition. THU find, for example, the indications of Basf as for the seeds treated with the insecticide Axcess. For the crops of wheat, barley, oats, rye, millet and sorghum treated with this product, a real quarantine is foreseen, which prohibits the approach of animals to them.
Seeds treated with dangerous substances represent one threat both for theenvironment that for the animals, including endangered species. The seeds treated with the product Signet 480 FS di Nufarmfor example, they would be toxic to fish, birds, aquatic invertebrates, oysters and shrimps. Here the warnings in this regard.
The use of toxic substances for the treatment of seeds, GMO and otherwise, should lead us to reflect more on the need for support agriculture that is as natural as possible, based on harmless products for humans and animals, as well as respectful of the environment starting from the choice of seeds. The spread of GMOs is clearly in contrast with the desire for cleaner agriculture.
