In my Bird and Ecology Blog, Arunachala Birds, which generally concentrates on matters specifically pertaining to Tiruvannamalai and surrounding countryside, I have made an interesting posting about GM crops and how they are affecting the lives and livelihood of farmers in this country. It is essential that all of us, NOT JUST FARMERS, have full, up-to-date information about GM crops and other unnatural processes.
For the first part of the narrative which is entitled:
"Is Monsanto Responsible For 200,000 Farmer Suicides?"
go to the link Eat Real Food.
And for information counteracting the remark GM supporters often make, "that bio-crops are the only way to feed the world's booming population in the future," go to the link entitled "The Problem with Franken Food."
If you have information about organic and natural farming techniques being used, or being planned to be used in the Tiruvannamalai area, please send me details so I can make a posting on this Blog. Also if you are a farmer and have organic produce for sale and would like me to mention it on this Blog, again send information to Meenakshi Ammal at the contact address, top left of this Blog.
