Meanwhile at the UN... "Eating meat and dairy is causing 20% of all greenhouse gas emissions." "So the producers of meat and dairy should pay for the damage they cause."

GMOs are poison. GMOs are anti-science. GMOs are cultural and social theft. GMOs don't make economic sense. GMOs are a blasphemy against God. GMOs MUST be rejected.

Let me tell you how it happened. Nigeria’s ginger export hit zero from N26 billion within 3 years. The official story blames fungal blight. But here is what actually happened. When Nigerian farmers lost their indigenous seed supply, grant-aided interventions arrived with replacement seeds. An associate professor at Lagos Business School flagged publicly that some of those interventions involved GMO organisms that weakened indigenous crops and compromised soil health. That is not a conspiracy theory because it is a documented academic concern. Now that Nigeria spoke got destroyed by the GMO seedlings….what is not the result? Nigeria was forced to import ginger from China to fill domestic demand. Chinese ginger has none of the pungency, oleoresin content, or quality that made Nigerian ginger a global premium product. And the ginger now sitting in Nigerian markets tastes like wood because it essentially is wood. The two indigenous varieties that built Nigeria’s global ginger reputation, the Tafin Giwa and Yatsun Biri, had decades of soil relationship and quality built into them. Once the soil was degraded and those seed varieties were displaced, the product that returned was a pale imitation. Nigeria did not just lose a market. It lost a seed. And without a National Ginger Seed Bank, which nobody has built, it may never fully get it back.

Senate Majority Leader, Aaron Cheruiyot: Kenya Kwanza fertilizer subsidy program cutting the cost of a 50kg bag to KSh 2,500 has increased tea production in tea growing areas. As a result, farmers are paid on time with far-reaching reforms since the signing into law of the Tea Act. Notwithstanding the progress made, much more needs to be done to fill the remaining gaps to give full benefits to the farmer.
