The Monsanto Co. caught the attention — and much of the aggravation — of the pesticide committee of the state Plant Board on Monday as it tried to address damage wrought by the illegal spraying of dicamba on some cotton and soybean fields in the state.

And some people still believe that Monsanto is not worse than the tobacco companies in the 60-70s.
Think what the farmers who lost 5% of their crop to Monsanto’s wind spead poisons will do to prevent that from happening again. Because Monsanto can take your farm if their corn blows into your field and take your crop when their pesticide blows in too.
A farmer who losses their profit this year will know that you can’t fight the corporate lawyers and in all likelyhood take the easy way out and next year give in and buy Monsanto’s NEW GMO product too. And heck since the NEW GMO product is already herbicide “friendly” why not just go ahead and spray that toxin too.
