Thanks to Louis for posting this. It's heavy reading and long but well
worth it for those interested in the Imperialist results of the
"agro-industrial complex" as it relates to the mono-crop of Soy.
Fascinating read. It's kind of a survey of different research papers and it
encourages people to read the literature. I think the flat out commendation
of GM soy is not explained except in terms of the specifics of how it's
been employed. Which is pretty bad. There is a LOT of research, obviously,
in to GM soy which it seems the author doesn't know too much about outside
the specific kind used in Latin America that allows for massive use of
Round Up. But that is another subject. Overall this is quite good. The
authors endorse agro-ecological approaches to growing soy (which isn't
generally condemned only how it is used in the Imperialist market place and
what it's effects are socially on the land in South America). Well worth
the read.
