We have 5 days left to tell lawmakers why clean food, safe working conditions and our nature needs our voice against toxic pesticides #ProtectMyPlate
🍽️ Food concerns everyone, so do the rules that protect it. If the EU rolls back food & pesticide laws, we all lose: our health, nature, clean water
We built these protections together over time. We have 7 days to defend them.

Indeed unwanted contamination will rapidly and repeatedly occur and it will be not reversible. As a geneticist and organic farmer, but more so as a mother feeding her children I cannot understand how this is not alarming and how it is not a political priority.

This proposal is incompatible with farmers' rights on seeds, and would simply legalize biopiracy by allowing the extension of the scope of patents to native seeds. This will only benefit to patent-holding multinationals, at the expense of European farmers, small seed breeders and agrobiodiversity

Indeed, farmers reject the EU-Mercosur agreement and the unfair competition it will bring to farmers in the EU and in Mercosur countries! But farmers also oppose the proposal to deregulate new genomic techniques, which want to impose patented GMOs without any traceability and labeling
