(India) 1600 Sheep Die After Grazing in Genetically Engineered Cotton Fields

[Guest guest]

Over 1600 sheep apparently died this month in India after ingesting genetically

engineered (GE) cotton. The massive deaths occurred after several days of

grazing in fields where Monsanto's Bt and herbicide resistant spliced varieties

of cotton were planted. Scientists from India's Centre for Sustainable

Agriculture are calling on the government to launch a study into the impacts of

GE cotton toxins. Learn more:
