Pesticide Use Proliferating With GMO Crops, Study Warns
Scott McAllister remembers well the meeting with the Monsanto salesman.
The third-generation Iowa farmer questioned the agricultural giant's peddler about his merchandise -- a new seed genetically engineered to withstand Monsanto's own Roundup brand herbicide. "Down the road, are we going to experience resistance in weeds with the continued use of Roundup?" he recalls asking.
He remembers, too, the response: "Oh no, that'll never happen."
