91: Stroking the Ugly Stick
Monsanto Pig Patent and Industrial Food Quality
Monsanto has filed a patent for a genetically modified pig designed to produce more meat with less feed. German activists and politicians are opposing the patent, which would allow the company to sue farmers who breed the animals. The discussion expands to criticize the quality of industrial food, including tasteless BST-treated milk and the loss of traditional farming practices.
