#7 – GM Crops Affect Regular Crops
The problem with the GM crops is that they are hard to hold and contain which will lead to a bigger problem if later we decide that they are no longer usable. Scientists did not find any solution to control cross-pollination yet.
So, even the farmers who use organic seeds can’t control the GM seeds to blow in their farms causing more cross-pollination. Monsanto advised separating farms so the pollination won’t be an issue anymore.
But, the seeds can travel over several kilometers. Soon enough, all food will be infected and we will lose the option to choose the organic food over the modified one, even the labeled ones are not guaranteed.
