Rene' (prosserfarmgirl) posted about this under Keeping In Touch. If this is something that you feel strongly about, make your voice heard by end-of-business this Friday.

Here's the key line: "USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) has given preliminary approval to Event 98140 corn, the first of a new generation of pesticide-promoting, genetically engineered (GE) crops designed to survive spraying with multiple herbicides." For more info, here's the link to Rene's post:

P.S. I'm also posting this in the Garden Gate forum.

Or if they're thinking about this at all. It's like they've never heard the definition of insanity. They just keep doing the same thing expecting different results - DUH!

I have already signed and sent the info along to friends. One just has to wonder what the USDA is thinking.
