All over the world, GE industry is attempting to contaminate the non-GE supply. Commercial growing of GE soya was illegal in Brazil until last year, when the Lula Government caved in to demand from Monsanto and farmers in Rio Grande do Sul who had been using Monsanto's GE soya seeds smuggled across from Argentina. The first legal harvest of GE soya is now ready and is about to enter Brazil's food chain and be exported overseas. The MV Arctic Sunrise (MVAS) GE soya tour aims to defend consumers' and farmers' rights to choose non-GE, and to expose the risk of GE soya.Related Collections:MV Arctic Sunrise GE Tour in Brazil (All Photographer & Videos)
