1 GMOs and Non-GMO Market Opportunities Ken Roseboro
2 Monsanto Harvest-Resistant GMO Corn Now Engulfing Most Of Midwest Officials say Indianapolis is now 60 percent corn. Monsanto announced plans to bring legal action against the 65 million people of the Midwest for growing patented genetic material without paying the company s seed premium.
3 GM crops on the market 94% of soybeans 93% of corn 96% of cotton Alfalfa, sugar beets, canola, papaya, zucchini, yellow squash, sweet corn
4 Negative GMO Impacts
5 Glyphosate problems Found in mothers breast milk Found in 75% of air, rain, streams Killing monarch butterflies Animal health problems
6 Stomach inflammation in pigs
7 Increased pesticide use Increased pesticide use by 404 million pounds since million lbs in 1999 to 90 million lbs in 2011 USDA: 1.5 pounds per acre to 2.0 pounds per acre
8 Superweeds
9 2,4-D resistant GM corn More toxic than glyphosate USDA: 7-fold increase in amount sprayed Drift kills vegetable crops GMO-herbicide treadmill 1 million comments opposing
10 Enlist GM crops and herbicide Approved by USDA and EPA Lawsuits filed to stop it Not approved in China Syngenta example
11 Rootworm resistance to Bt corn
12 Corn GMO contamination Cross pollination MW farmers seeing higher levels GMO levels: 0.1% to 0.5% Seed tested positive Grow corn seed in Europe
13 Organic farmers pay for GMO contamination Causing extra work, longer hours, economic hardships 60% extremely concerned about GMOs 1 of 3 dealt with contamination Average loss: $4500
14 Sources of GMO contamination Seed Pollen drift Equipment not cleaned Farm inputs Ingredients in organic foods
15
16 Organic Ready corn
17 PuraMaize organic corn Natural gene blocking system Prevents cross pollination from GM corn Samples taken 2012 and 2013 harvests Tested negative at limit of 0.05%
18 GM food labeling initiatives
19
20 19 States introduced labeling bills
21 GMO labeling passed in VT
22 Bills passed in CT and Maine Bills passed overwhelmingly Victory for democracy Trigger clause
23 State labeling ballot initatives Initiatives lost in CA, WA, CO, OR Lost by less than 1% in OR. Food/biotech cos. spent $100 million Supporters: $20 million
24 64 countries have GMO labeling
25 GMO bans passed this year Jackson, Josephine Counties in Oregon Island of Maui Monsanto and Dow spent $8 million to defeat Humboldt County
26 Non-GMO trend
27 Whole Foods to label GMOs 2018 deadline Pushing cos. to go non-gmo Other retailers: Trader Joe s, Target
28 Non-GMO growth Non-GMO Project verification 22,000+ products companies $8 billion sales
29 Non-GMO brands
30 Chipotle going non-gmo
31 Ben & Jerry s
32 Non-GMO goes mainstream
33 Non-GMO buttery spreads
34 Chobani yogurt
35 More interest in non-gmo Articles in Modern Farmer, Minnesota Farm Guide, Iowa Farmer Today, Progressive Farmer Increased demand for non-gmo feed Cargill selling non- GMO soybean oil Universities developing varieties
36 Non-GMO seed billboard
37 Reasons for going non-gmo Glyphosate resistant weeds Insect resistance Lower seed costs Earn premium: $2.00 for soybeans
38 Online non-gmo cost calculators
39 Long-term trend: Organic
40 Wal-Mart, Target, McDonald s selling organics
41 Squirrels prefer organic corn
42
43
44 Exposé on GMO field trials 20,000 field trials with 100,000 GM plants Industry friendly Government researchers sloppy We ve opened up parts of America for experimentation
45 GMOs threaten organic farming
46 Solutions
47 Actions Lawsuits to stop GMOs: CFS Liability needed, compensation fund Organic industry united to stop Organic groups sued Monsanto
48 GMO bans
49 No GMO sunflowers!
50 Squirrels prefer organic corn!
51 Thank you!

53 GMO Impacts on Organic Rejected grain shipments Lost premiums/markets Harms organic integrity
54 NOP and GMOs Excluded method No isolation distance No thresholds Allows adventitious presence
