Why Genetically ModifiedGMO tomatoes stay fresh for over
a month. (Whereas they are fresh for 15 days)
GMO plants are resilient and grow easily.
Crops are more identical, aesthetically pleasing and have premium ripeness.
GMO foods allow crops to survive longer and withstand conditions that they usually would not.

Why not Genetically ModifyWe do not know the long term
effects of consuming GMO products. (possible sterilization and allergens)
The GMO plants are too resilient and take over plots of land.
Companies issue patents over plants and create legal difficulties.
Large companies put family farms out of business and ruin plant diversity.

Data and StatisticsGMO plants grow on approximately
35,000 hectares of German soil.August 2010, 198 gmo-free-regions,
235 gmo-free-municipalities and 29.836 gmo-free-farmers, i.e. 1.075.407 ha (2.657.388 acres), were sanctioned in Germany.
A label that signifies “non-GMO” will be implemented and also constitutes GMO free-fed animals.
