Monsanto is a major producer of genetically engineered seeds that are modified to resist herbicides and pests. However, Monsanto has also received criticism for how it patents its seeds and requires farmers to sign contracts. The article discusses how Monsanto controls a large portion of the market for crops like soybeans, corn, and cotton through its genetically modified seeds. Some issues raised are whether gene modification can truly solve food shortages and improve lives, and if food companies have an ethical obligation to label foods that are genetically modified.
Smokey Alley v. Monsanto
This class action lawsuit alleges that several biotech companies acted irresponsibly and put profits before safety when introducing new genetically modified crops and accompanying herbicides. Specifically, Monsanto prematurely released dicamba-resistant cotton and soybean seeds despite warnings that this could damage nearby non-resistant crops if farmers illegally sprayed the herbicide dicamba. In 2015, some farmers did spray dicamba illegally over the dicamba-resistant crops as instructed by Monsanto representatives, resulting in damage to neighboring crops from herbicide drift. The lawsuit accuses the companies of ignoring risks and responsibilities in their rush to profit from the new seed traits and herbicide products.

The document summarizes the impacts of the Green Revolution from the 1940s-1970s, which aimed to increase global agricultural production through new technologies. It led to increased cereal crop yields through high-yielding varieties, irrigation infrastructure, and chemical fertilizers and pesticides. This boosted food availability and reduced famine in countries like India and Mexico. However, it also had negative consequences like groundwater depletion, increased monocultures, and worsening inequality as small farmers struggled with high input costs. The document then discusses the introduction of GE crops and notes both arguments for reducing world hunger but also concerns about the impacts on bees, weeds, and Indian farmer suicides.

Controversies in patents
This document summarizes controversies around patents on genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and their impact. It discusses how Monsanto has patented genetically engineered corn, soybean, cotton, and canola. Monsanto also produces Roundup herbicide and crops resistant to it, leading to environmental and health concerns. Further controversy stems from Monsanto suing farmers for accidental contamination of crops with GMO pollen from neighboring fields. While Monsanto argues GMOs help feed the world, critics point to their environmental damage and potential health risks. The document outlines the spread of GMOs internationally through trade agreements and Monsanto's practices in India that have led to widespread farmer suicides. It concludes with bans on GMOs in several European and Asian
Genetical engineering
The document discusses genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and provides several key facts and figures:
1) Only four countries - the United States, Argentina, Canada, and China - grow almost 90% of the world's GM crops. The vast majority of other countries grow no GMOs.
2) Only four main crops - soy, maize, cotton, and oil-seed rape - make up over 99% of GMOs grown, with herbicide tolerance and insect resistance being the dominant traits.
3) Critics are concerned that genetic engineering may have unintended health and environmental impacts, as it allows for novel genetic combinations not possible through natural breeding.

This document discusses genetically modified (GM) crops and their global production. It notes that GM crops are predominantly grown in six countries and make up less than 1% of total farmed area worldwide. While the biotech industry claims GM crops can help feed the world, evidence shows that GM crops have increased pesticide use and questions remain about their safety and benefits for small farmers.
final blow
The key document summarizes success factors in the seed and agrochemical production industry. It discusses three main factors: yield potential through innovative technology and genetically modified seeds, consumer safety regarding product use, and intellectual property rights protection. Yield potential is increased through biotechnology that modifies seeds for herbicide resistance and improved structure. Companies collaborate by developing seeds tailored for specific agrochemicals to boost sales. Consumer safety involves manufacturing controls and environmental impact of seeds and chemicals. Intellectual property protection is increasingly important as research and trade secrets drive industry competition.
Save Our Seeds: Agriculture and Environment Threatened by GE Seed Contaminati...
The document discusses a proposed EU directive that would legalize low levels of genetic contamination in conventional and organic seeds. Specifically:
- It would allow up to 0.3% GE seed contamination in oilseed rape, and up to 0.5% contamination in maize, beet, potatoes, tomatoes and cotton.
- These thresholds could result in 7,000 million unregulated GE plants being released each year across EU farmland, rising to 11,000 million with EU enlargement.
- Environmental, farmer and consumer groups oppose this proposal, arguing it threatens the viability of organic agriculture and farmers' rights to choose non-GE seeds.
GMOs and their Implications on the Filipino Peoples' Food Security
1) The document discusses the implications of GMOs on food security in the Philippines. It notes that millions of Filipino families experience food insecurity and involuntary hunger.
2) Farmers' experiences with GM corn over a decade showed negative economic and health impacts, including increased debt, loss of land and traditional seeds, environmental damage, and various health issues.
3) People's organizations are advocating for banning GMOs and promoting sustainable agriculture instead, noting that GMOs have not increased farmers' productivity or incomes and pose risks to human and environmental health. They are calling on the government to terminate GMO field testing and recalls and to promote non-GMO farming.

Scope of GM crops in india
Genetically modified (GM) foods are crop plants modified in a laboratory to enhance traits or nutritional content. The first commercial GM whole food crop was tomato puree. Issues around GM crops include debates around their safety and regulation, as well as their potential environmental and agricultural impacts. India is experimenting with GM crops like cotton, maize, sorghum, brinjal, and potato. Supporters argue GM crops could help reduce hunger, improve nutrition, and increase yields, while critics warn of potential allergens, pest resistance, harm to wildlife, and corporate control of agriculture. India faces pressure to adopt more GM crops but some argue they should be banned for food use and more carefully regulated overall.

Here are the key points about costly price discrimination:
- If price discrimination involves costs, it may no longer be profitable for the firm to engage in it. The costs of discrimination must be less than the additional profits it generates.
- As discrimination costs rise, the firm will find it optimal to discriminate less, charging a smaller number of different prices or targeting fewer customer groups. In the limit of very high costs, it may charge a single undifferentiated price.
- This means the firm's output and total welfare may be lower when price discrimination is costly compared to if it could costlessly perfectly price discriminate. Output could fall short of the efficient competitive level.
- Consumers who are charged higher prices as

Dr Evgeny Sagulenko is a microbiologist who has over 20 years of experience researching agricultural microbiology. His research interests include general microbiology, agriculture, and cancer research. He has a patent application for using bacteria from the genus Burkholderia to improve agricultural practices. Laboratory trials have shown that a biofertilizer containing these bacteria can increase plant growth for crops like rice, tomatoes, wheat, and corn. Developing the technology for commercial use would cost an estimated $3 million and involve further optimization, hydroponic, greenhouse and field trials. If successful, the biofertilizer technology could help increase crop yields while reducing environmental pollution from inorganic fertilizers and improving soil quality.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
