GMO soybeans......???

DennisTate · Feb 11, 2021

I heard this guy being interviewed by Mr. Michael J. Lindell and decided to google him?

Personally....... I am thinking that it sounds logical that if you produce a plant that depends of chemical fertilizers... .chemical pesticides.... chemical herbicides..... chemical fungicides and roundup to kill competitor plants...... then that plant..... might not be quite as good as a plant that does NOT NEED quite so much assistance from oil based products?????????

Genetically modified food
In 2015, Ayyadurai published a paper that applied systems biology, which uses mathematical modeling, to predict the chemical composition of genetically modified (GM) soybeans, and whether or not they were substantially equivalent to unmodified soybeans.[24] The paper claimed that GM soybeans have lower levels of the antioxidant glutathione and higher levels of carcinogenic formaldehyde, making the modified soybean substantially different, contrary to previous safety assessments.[25] Shortly after publication, Ayyadurai embarked on a speaking tour of the U.S. At the National Press Club, he said that genetic modification had "fundamentally modified the metabolic system of the soy", disrupting the "beautiful way of detoxifying [formaldehyde]" present in non-GM soy.[26]

The European Food Safety Agency evaluated the paper and determined that "the author's conclusions are not supported" due to the lack of information on the input into the model, the fact that the model was not validated and because no measurements of soybeans were made to establish whether GM soy actually contained elevated levels of formaldehyde.[27] Plant scientist Kevin Folta noted that there was "no evidence ever published ... that shows a difference in formaldehyde between GM and non-GM varieties".[28] Ayyadurai later cited the study as evidence of a lack of safety standards for GM foods and bet Monsanto a $10 million building if they could prove that they were safe. Monsanto did not take up the challenge but stated that GM food did indeed undergo safety assessments that "are more rigorous and thorough than assessments of any other food crop in history".[29] In 2016, Ayyadurai promised to donate $10 million to Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign if she could disprove his research.[30]

The round up ready soy has been getting a lot of break through weeds problems so they have shifted to glyphosate and dicamba ready soy beans under the Roundup Ready 2 name. The bulk of US soybeans are GMO's which I always thought was funny that people who hate roundup were, as a matter of political convenience, begging the case of the poor soybean farmers victimized by Trump. Dicamba is a nasty chemical that is both a known carcinogenic and it is really bad about drift/translocation. Before the trade war, US farmers were already experiencing about a 5% crop loss in their soyfields due to the changeover in GMO's and new mixture as the new soybeans aren't always as "ready" as marketed.
