So, it has finally reached Nepal, Monsanto is introducing Genetically modified seed to Nepal shortly. If anyone is not aware of what Monsanto and their GMO seeds and crops have done to the rest of the world please see below: http://www.seedsofdeception.co... Food Inc documentary: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v... Future of food: http://www.hulu.com/watch/6787... Please read the email I received and say no to GMO seeds. Dear All, USAID in cooperation with Monsanto Corp. is going to start a large project to introduce hybrid maize seeds to Nepal.  The next step will be GM (Genetically Modified) seed.  This is a very controversial topic, it is powered by big business, and it will change agriculture in Nepal in serious ways. For those who are interested in and have opinions about the future of agriculture in Nepal, I am sending the link to US Ambassador Scott H. DeLisi's Facebook page.  Here you can post your comments about the USAID/Monsanto Hybrid seed project.  If you know the problems that come with hybrid seed and GM (Genetically Modified) seed, our best approach is to demonstrate and prove that organic is a better way. There is now a lot of evidence for this. https://www.facebook.com/Scott... It is important for us to write our opinions about the best future for farmers in Nepal.  Organic?  Hybrid? GMO?  Please use the facts in your comments.  We don't want to start a fight, but we want to educate the US ambassador and as many other people as possible. I have also made a Facebook page:  Food Security How?  Organic? Hybrid? GM?  https://www.facebook.com/pages... This goal of this page is to educate as many people as possible about the pros and cons of organic, hybrid and GM farming, so that Nepal can make an informed choice for the future of farming.  Please educate yourselves and share with others. Namaste, Jim
