    Where does Monsanto stand now? It’s been many years since HackerNews was AstroTurfed by them.

      I just found out that farmers spray enough of the chems to kill all the plants off so they can be harvested at the same time. They aren't applying it just to grow, they then pump it full of them and then we eat that. No wonder why people are getting sick from it.
