[…]chemical industries. “These corporations have reduced the variety and availability of native seeds. They genetically modify crops so farmers have to buy new seeds every year, and use corporate chemicals like RoundUp to grow them. They’d do the same thing with GMO marijuana,” said Straumietis.

[…]produces no seeds. What they do is attempt to stretch patents on chemicals to claim ownership on seeds, even in countries where patents on seeds and plants are not allowed- India, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico and many other countries. In fact, all the court cases against Monsanto in India are related to Monsanto un-scientifically, illegally and illegitimately claiming patents on seed, in contempt of their laws, and trying to collect royalties from the Indian seed industry and farmers. This may seem like a stretch or hyperbole, but it’s not. As the article puts it: “The Farben family chemical cartel was responsible […]

[…]no deal on the table, Bayer has discussed how it could finance the purchase of the Missouri-based seed company. They could also just end up creating a new joint venture with Monsanto. Both of those ideas sound terrifying. Last year, Monsanto attempted to buy Syngenta. That sale would have given the combined company control of 40% of the U.S. pesticide market. But, Syngenta hesitated and later agreed to sell itself to the China National Chemical Corp., for $43 billion dollars. Bloomberg believes that if Bayer does move forward with an offer to Monsanto, it’s likely that BASF, a German company, might also hop […]
[…]“We breed our own barley varieties, we direct contract our own seed, and bring it into our own seed facilities. We own grain elevators in three different states and malt plants in two states, and we brew our own beer and take it to consumers. It’s a complete ‘seed to sip’ process.” Anheuser-Busch works with 1,000 U.S. farmers who grow barley, rice, and hops for the company’s products. The Contract for Change aims to increase production of organic barley used to make Michelob ULTRA Pure Gold, which is the sixth-fastest-growing beer brand in the U.S. with sales increasing by 200 […]
[…]test of monopolistic control. There would be a huge concentration of the market in large swaths of seed development and sales for other commonly used seeds, including traited strains of canola, soybeans, and corn. The merger would also increase Monsanto’s control over other areas in which it is already a dominant player, including fertilizers, pesticides and farming technology.” RELATED ARTICLE: Fox: Will The Bayer Monsanto Deal Fail the Food System!? (Yes Fox, It will) Should they decide to, the new behemoth corporation could “bundle” products together leaving farmers with few if any, alternatives. And that could increase prices for farmers, […]

[…]and may also include chili pepper, ginger, garlic, fennel seed, caraway, cinnamon, clove, mustard seed, cardamom, nutmeg, and black pepper. The potential varieties are nearly endless, and they don’t always have to be spicy hot. Curry powder is a spice mix of varying ingredients based on South Asian cuisine. Curry powder and the very word “curry” are Western inventions and do not reflect any specific South Asian food, though a similar mixture of spices used in India is called garam masala. The word “curry” is derived from the Tamil word kari meaning “sauce for rice”, although most people think of […]
[…]Plant rows 6 inches apart, skip 3 feet, then plant two more rows 6 inches apart. Hoss recommends seeding carrots in a thick band and not thinning them, so you’ll have a “dense forest of carrots” and get a lot of production out of a little bit of space. When grown this way, your carrots may not all come out uniform in size — some will be smaller and some bigger — but they’ll taste great just the same. Carrots should be seeded directly outdoors, as they don’t transplant well, and do best when planted in cooler temperatures during the […]
[…]add your soil and a layer of mulch.” Figs– I love figs and you can grow them from a seed or a pre-started fig tree. Make sure to plant the tree in a planter with drainage holes and put it in a well-lit area, but NOT direct sunlight, they thrive at 65 degrees. Water the tree until the water comes out of the drainage holes but not so much that the tree is pooling. Water regularly once a week! Papaya– As long as you place a papaya plant in an area that’s at least 65 degrees Fahrenheit or higher, and […]
