French farmer protests a new law which seeks to raise farmers’ yields on his land

French farmer protests a new law which seeks to raise farmers’ yields on his land. The law was passed in June to try to curb farmers’ losses.

In June this year, Monsanto developed a new technology called Bt-tet, or Bt pollen and trait in which the technology combines the gene to increase the production of milkweed, a plant known to produce vitamin B9, which in turn makes the plant more resistant to herbicides and is thought to reduce herbicide use.

It was claimed that the combination would increase the yield of the seeds by 30-50% compared to Monsanto’s seed. The technology has now attracted support from scientists, who are considering how to use it in the future to make bacillus thuringiensis a crop crop. The technology is not yet commercially viable in the UK.

However, a petition signed by 20,000 people on Googl부천출장마사지 부천출장샵e+ has raised awareness about a petition, which has been signed by over 4,000 members from across the UK, asking the Government to consider a ban.

The petition reads:

“This petition is a call for action from all who believe we should keep our farmers’ rights and to stand 마사지up for British agriculture.

It is about ensuring that the farmers’ needs are not squashed in the name of the world’s best friend. We should stand up for British agricultur영양출장마사지e, not for the world’s great food industry, especially farmers in the most vulnerable places and our farmers themselves.”

In response to the petition, the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs issued a statement saying:

“We are confident that Bt has the potential to improve crop yields and meet food needs. If farmers are prepared to test their crops in fields outside the UK, then we will work closely with local people who will work with government officials as part of an international partnership on this matter.”

A spokesman for Bt said: “We have been working on Bt technology with the government for a number of years and this project is only now getting underway as it gets final approval. The technology works by combining genes from various plants into a single gene that may improve yields.

“This technology has so far shown very impressive results for farmers in Africa which has led us to think that we may see the technology applied to crops outside our own region. To find out more about this, we invite all farmers, growers and research scientists from around the world to test-drive the technology.”
