(8,688 posts)Because of GMO's and their heavy use of herbicides (Roundup) , people are getting cancer and other illnesses. Monsanto is facing 5,000 lawsuits on Roundup. Monsanto's GMO's are made for Roundup.
So, Roundup is eventually going to disappear just like Trump. In the meantime, Putin will not allow any GMO food to be grown in his country. Russia is now the world's largest GMO free country and is the one of the world's largest producers of wheat. It's also a large producer of corn and barley. Russia is planning to up their soybean production to compete with the US. i'm sure more countries will want GMO free soybeans than American GMO soybeans. Trump's embargo already has other countries buying Russian soybeans. (Maybe Putin made Trump put tariffs on soybeans so he could sell his - notice now that Putin and Trump are not buddies, Trump is taking the tariffs off.) Trump was his puppet after all. Russia plans to be the largest producer of GMO free and organic food in the world.
