Farmers need to beware of Monsanto contract

Many farmers were listed as opponents of the GM labeling effort in California (PROP 37) but if they really understood the contract they’ve signed when they planted Monsanto crops they might have decided differently.  Monsanto is making the farmer sign a contract that makes the farmer liable for everything related to growing, cross contamination, and injury.  Monsanto is trying to hide behind the farmers so that they can disclaim issues arising with their crops so that as more evidence comes in that GM products aren’t safe, it will be the farmers fault.  Read the facts here and if you know… Read More
