Some scientists, who have sold themselves to agricultural multinationals, shamelessly deceive people by spreading false information about the benefits of genetically modified products for humanity. However, in reality, only the agricultural TNCs themselves and the degraded non-people who have sold them to them, who help the world parasitic "elite" to reduce the population of the Earth, derive benefit from this lie for their pockets.

At the same time, surprisingly, the GMO lobby is strong enough in our country, where not only members of the pseudoscientific commission of the Russian Academy of Sciences, but also a fairly large group of young scientists who grew up on Soros textbooks, educate pro-Western corrupt slaves who are capable of cent to sell not only the country and the people, but also his own mother. So, what are the GMOs that the Monsanto Corporation and other monsters like that are so diligently planting around the world? In the Book "100 Great Threats to Civilization", published under the editorship of A. Bernatsky, you can read the following about this:

“Thus, transgenic plants in ecological systems show“aggression”and cause disruption of the integrity of agroecosystems. This is due to the fact that the majority of transgenic plants (about 85%) are created in order to resist viruses, bacteria and insects. For this reason, a number of experts believe that that the use of transgenic varieties can cause the death of soil-forming microorganisms and invertebrates due to the fact that fragments of genetically modified plants carrying toxins will remain in the fields.

In addition, the qualitative diversity of the gene pool of wild ancestors of cultivated plants in the centers of their origin may also decrease. And the reason for this may be their pollination by related transgenic plants. And this assumption has already been confirmed in our century in Mexico - in the center of origin of about 60 varieties of maize. It was here in 2001 that the 35S viral promoter was discovered in wild corn, which is used to create genetically modified plants.

Also, in transgenic plants, due to adaptation to changed conditions of existence, new properties may appear even after several generations. This, for example, happened with drought-resistant corn: it turned out that a few years after the introduction of this variety into corn, a new symptom suddenly appeared - stem cracking, which caused the death of the entire crop. And this is not an isolated example. Thus, transgenic plants with high resistance to insect pests did not justify the hopes placed on them. After several years of their mass cultivation, new varieties of phytophagous insects, resistant to transgenic toxins, have appeared.

It also happens that after the destruction of the main pest against which transgenic plants were used, another, no less aggressive, appears in the ecosystem to replace it. So, the Colorado potato beetle, destroyed by the toxins of the modified potato, was replaced by the scoop, and in some agocenoses - by the aphid. As a result of the emergence of these secondary pests, potato farmers have suffered significant financial losses.

Moreover, transgenic plants often kill beneficial pollinating insects. For example, in a number of regions of Azerbaijan and the United States, transgenic corn and potatoes caused massive death of bees. And ladybugs that ate aphids living on modified potatoes became sterile.

But these are not all the problems that appear in agrocenoses after the introduction of transgenic plants into them. In particular, in the fields where genetically modified crops are grown, species diversity is significantly reduced. So, in experiments conducted in Great Britain, it was found that the number of different species on such plantations becomes 3 times less. Moreover, this phenomenon is characteristic of both soil organisms and insects and vertebrates.

However, the most worrying thing is that transgenic plants over time can have a negative impact on human health. Thus, corn of the MON863 variety, which is grown in the United States, was recognized by the European Commission as suitable for animal feeding in 2005, and as a food product for humans in 2006. Since 2003, this corn has been grown in Russia as well. But unexpectedly in 2007, French scientists found that products made from this corn variety cause liver and kidney toxicosis in animals, and therefore, they are not safe for human health.

Moreover, the risk of using transgenic plants as food products also lies in the fact that polyamines, nitrogen-containing organic compounds with high biological activity, can accumulate in these crops as a result of changes in metabolism. In an ordinary plant, they are formed in negligible amounts. However, in case of disturbances in metabolic processes, there is a danger of accumulation of these substances in cells to toxic concentrations. These compounds can also enter the human body along with animal products or plant foods.

Interesting results were obtained in experiments on mice. When transgenic soybeans and corn were added to the feed of these rodents, the females of these animals increased aggressiveness, lost their maternal instincts, they ate the newborn offspring, etc.

From these facts follows a completely logical consequence that at the present time experts do not have enough convincing evidence that would make it possible to speak with a high degree of confidence about the absence of serious risks when using genetically modified crops as animal feed and human food.

And yet, despite such risks, more and more transgenic crops are produced in the world every year. So, according to official statistics, in 2012, more than 170.3 million hectares were sown with transgenic agricultural plants. In general, from 1996 to 2012, the area of land occupied by modified crops increased 100 times. Moreover, the annual growth of these areas is about 6%.

In general, transgenic plants in the world occupy about 12% of the fields, the remaining 88% of arable land are sown with ordinary plants. According to experts, the main factor holding back the rapid growth of areas for genetically modified plants is the small number of varieties of these crops. Currently, only genetically modified maize, soybeans, cotton, papaya, rapeseed, sugar beets, tomatoes and alfalfa are grown.

It should be noted that the main increase in the land sown with transgenic plants occurs in developing countries. So, in Africa in 2012, the area for these crops increased to 2.9 million hectares, that is, by 26%. The largest areas for transgenic plants are allotted in the United States - almost 70 million hectares. In Brazil, genetically modified crops grow on 37 million hectares.

Proponents of the widespread introduction of transgenic plants into agricultural production often claim the enormous economic benefits that these plants promise. But this is just a myth invented by manufacturers and patent holders for the created genetically modified plant varieties. Studies of both foreign and Russian scientists prove that traditional crops of conventional selection are superior in productivity to genetically modified counterparts.

For example, Argentina, which has focused its entire agricultural production on transgenic plant varieties, cannot defeat hunger. At the same time, European states, which practically do not grow genetically modified varieties, provide a high standard of living for the population."

Thus, GMOs not only do not save humanity from hunger, as the servants of the parasitic world "elite" openly lie to us, but they also cause enormous harm to all living organisms, leading to their infertility and degeneration, and a decrease in the number of species. GMOs pose no less harm to humans, since they are one of the most effective tools for reducing the population of the Earth to the 500 million people declared in the Virginia Tablets. And it is no coincidence that neither the representatives of the parasitic satanic world "elite", nor their corrupt servants who tell stories "about the benefits of GMOs" themselves do not want to eat them even on camera for propaganda purposes, because they know very well what this can lead to. their own health.
