Food Security, Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO's) and the need for Organic and Sustainable Agriculture

We believe our people have a right to know what food they are eating. GMO food is not labelled. We are also greatly alarmed by the monopolistic control of the sale of seed and distribution in South Africa. It is obviously essential for our small-scale farmers to be able to continue saving seed for the next season. Organic farming is sustainable and provides the best opportunities for export. This is not possible with GMO seed under the control of multi-national corporations. Our food security is in jeopardy.
