New Landmark Study: Herbicide Cocktail Used in GMO Agriculture Causes Leaky Gut In response to the spread of glyphosate herbicide-resistant weeds in GM agriculture, the agbiotech industry has developed GM crops tolerant to glyphosate plus 2,4-D and glyphosate plus dicamba, two other herbicides that glyphosate was originally meant to replace. As a result, people are increasingly exposed to mixtures of these herbicides, yet no studies have been conducted to assess the health risks of such chemical cocktails. Intestinal structure and integrity, as well as gut microbiome composition and function, are recognized contributors to disease. Therefore an international team of scientists, led by Prof Michael Antoniou, investigated the effects of glyphosate alone and in combination with 2,4-D and dicamba on gut structure and function. The study was designed to reflect real-world chemical exposure beginning prenatally in the womb, as well as the mixture of herbicides to which Americans are increasingly exposed. The findings show that the levels of these herbicides, when ingested as a mixture, have adverse effects and are not safe at all – and that regulatory assurances of safety are false.

5 years after completing the @Cornell's Global Leadership Program. I'm excited to take part in this year's Annual Cornell Lecture for Plant Breeders. A time to share with Grad students about how the #AgBiotech innovations are offering hope for better livelihoods in Africa.
Join us for the Annual Cornell Lecture for Plant Breeders. Hear from Prof. Ademola Adenle, winner of the Global Food & Peace Award, as he explores how science communication can transform agriculture and food systems across Africa. @Cornell @SheilaAfrica @arif4science

GM purple tomato research has shown a 30% extension of cancer-prone mice. This highlights the potential for significant human health benefit capability of agbiotech. These are the social benefits that groups like @Greenpeace @SierraClub @FoEint want to deny people.

I worked at an agbiotech company that ended up with a pretty successful LatAm biz accidentally by having low cost inputs where we could arrange the credit effectively....

$IFUS represents a critical market player in #agbiotech. 🐂 Bullish beef cattle markets reflect increased demand for protein. Quality beef begins with quality cattle feed diets; additives by $IFUS prove essential. 💯 #TradersQue sees the connections. Our services capitalize on them. 🎯
