    GMOs were supposed to cut the use of pesticides. An NYT investigation shows they aren't living up to that promise.http://nyti.ms/2eQ2gXn

        It's clear to me that no amount of evidence will convince some folk that #GMOs are safe. It's a belief system, immune to evidence.

        when you say "safe" do you refer to injestion, the chemicals used, and/or the freedom aspects?

        What is it about GMO that improves a farmer's freedoms if a corp owns their seed?

        it's an educated choice we make as farmers to purchase/adhere to the terms and conditions.

        As I mentioned, it doesn't appear that straightforward. Industrial ag is developing that way.
