The problem is, ordered to destroy the seed fields in a week.
It takes 2 years to get sugarbeet seed. They grow the 1st summer, go to seed the 2nd summer, and you get to plant that seed the following spring.
If all gmo seedlings are destroyed, and we only have about 5% seed from the non-gmo seed stock.....
What will we plant in 2011 and 2012? It would be 2013 before enough non-gmo could be produced.
He's eliminating 2 years of beet production, and bringing 2013 into question, as to what type of seed to produce.
As well, there are likely not enough conventional herbicides available to spray a 100% nongmo crop, if we could find enough seed somewhere.
This is gonna affect the public if it is carried out.
Myself, I don't like the business side of gmo crops, don't think a life form should be patented.
Be tt as it may, this ban, unlike the alfalfa one, is gonna affect people over the next 2 years.
One answer will be to allow sugar imports.
Which will basically shut down the sugar industry in the USA, and then we will get surar with no controls or regulations flooding into this country, and another segment of unemployed people in the USA.
If this deal continues to go badly, it will be a major effect on the USA. The people behind it have worse intentions than Monsanto has, tho no one is paying attention to that.

While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
