G Edward Griffin’s Need to Know
In 2006, Monsanto advised farmers to spray its Roundup Ready pesticide, with the active ingredient glyphosate, on wheat so that it would act as a dessicant to dry it out and prevent mold. Robert Kennedy Jr. said: “And it was so popular that about 85 % of the Roundup that has been used in history has been used since 2006. A large part of that is as a desiccant. And what that meant, is for the first time they’re spraying it on food right at harvest.”
“What Monsanto did is they began telling farmers, spray this on the crop, on your wheat, right before harvest or at the time of harvest. And it was so popular that about 85 % of the Roundup that has been used in history has been used since 2006. A large part of that is as a desiccant. And what that meant, is for the first time they’re spraying it on food right at harvest.”
“Not early in the season when they have a chance to wash off, but actually just before you’re going to eat it. And they’re spraying it for the first time on wheat because there was no such thing as Roundup Ready Wheat. They started spraying it on wheat as a desiccant. And so 2006 marks the day when suddenly these gluten allergies began exploding. The celiac disease and all these kind of wheat problems that we started seeing in this country.”
If you measure it back and say, when did it start? You can look and draw a red line at this 2006 and it’s the year that they began spraying it on.
From Wall Street Mav:
Other countries are beginning to ban the use of Monsanto’s Roundup pre-harvest.
The U.S. has not banned Monsanto’s Roundup (glyphosate) for pre-harvest use at the federal level; in fact, the EPA still approves its use, but some U.S. cities, counties, and even large food companies have restricted or phased out its use, especially as a pre-harvest desiccant on crops like oats and wheat due to cancer concerns.
Is organic wheat sprayed with glyphosate?
From Custommapposter:
Genetically modified organisms, nanomaterials, human sewage sludge, plant growth regulators, hormones, and antibiotic use in livestock husbandry are prohibited [in organic farming].
Glyphosate is not allowed to be sprayed on organic wheat according to USDA organic standards. Sadly, we did find the presence of glyphosate residue in organic wheat, and other organic grains, including organic barley, oats, spelt, and einkorn. The range was from 0.03 to 0.
