they are there to help feed our growing population. have some big corporate companies taken advantage of that and bullied out the local farmer? yes, and that sucks, but it has happened many times before in other sectors....their environmental factors, i think, haven't been fully discovered...whoever said they required more pesticides, herbicides, etc is a dumbass.

While people are defending GMOs, think about this (because sharing scientific studies that show it's harmful won't move your meters).

Why do you have to pay extra and go through silly hoops to grow organic, while GMO farms get free money in the form of subsidies?

And why do these big biotech companies make farmers purchase seeds every year, when crops naturally leave seeds for the next season?
