| Seeds of discontent,デュベティカアウトレット
As the only farmer not growing genetically modified crops in Makari village,parajumpers sale free shipping Hampton Roads Technology Council for sale, Nagappa's seven-acre field stands alone. grow local millets,http://discountnikesoccershoes.webmium.com/, vegetables and cotton,デュベティカダウンジャケット, he says rather proudly. But Nagappa,http://duveticadownjacketssale.webmium.com/, from Haveri district in Karnataka was not immune to market pressures. A few years earlier he tried out Bt Cotton like everyone else and noticed the yields going down every year. Three years ago he stopped all that and started growing non hybrid varieties of local crops. His farm is a biodiversity marvel with several indigenous varieties including 22 types of millets,デュベティカ 激安, and in all 49 different variations of crops. Fifty-one-year-old Nagappa holds pride of place in Sahaja Samrudha Organic Producer Company Ltd,デュベティカ取扱店神戸, which for the last 10 years has been promoting organic farming using local varieties of crops in Karnataka. Krishna Prasad of Sahaja,デュベティカ 大阪, which calls itself India's first organic producers company,ダウンジャケットメンズ, says the group does crop improvement for farmers and also released six farmer bred varieties in the market. The organization works in 20 districts and supplies products to a network of 18 organic shops in the country. Farmers have identified rare varieties of rice,ダウンジャケットメンズ, for instance Rajamudi which was the favourite rice of the Mysore Maharajas and other types such as Navara which is good for the nerves and even rice suitable for pregnant women. There are more than 100,デュベティカダウンジャケット,000 rice varieties in the country which have been subsumed by the aggressive marketing of hybrids. One farmer grows over 20 varieties of brinjal and the Soliga tribe specializes in coloured maize. Ghani Khan from Mandya district grows mangoes in his 250-year-old orchard which includes a variety of mangoes. Ghani's farm,ダウンジャケットメンズ, which is much written about,デュベティカ ダウンジャケット, is declared a heritage site and he has resisted the temptation to sell it off to the brick kilns that abound in his area. Sahaja has also launched India's first farmer owned seed brand Akkadi and 16 farmers' groups are involved in its activities,デュベチカ専売店. The Bill assumes that all GM crops are proven safe and there is no mention of detailed evaluation or safety assessments,ダウンジャケットduvetica. It bypasses the citizens' right to information and there is no proposal for independent bio-safety testing,デュベティカ サイズ. A Greenpeace critique on the BRAI Bill says that it does not give any power to state governments to reject the introduction of GM crops including experimental releases through field trials,デュベティカ 激安, especially since agriculture is a state subject. When the Centre was planning to introduce Bt Brinjal several state governments had opposed it. The Greenpeace report says that there is no provision for long term independent assessment of impact of GM crops or a need assessment report explaining why the specific GM crop is required. Even worse is the fact that the Bill says that the provision of the Right to Information (RTI) Act,デュベチカ 通販, 2005 would not apply to confidential commercial information submitted under the provisions of the proposed Bill. Only that information which is in the public interest and does not harm any person will be disclosed. It also curtails public participation and proposes a grievance redressal mechanism which is a duplication of the National Green Tribunal. The polluter pays principle has not been adhered to,ダウンジャケットレディース, says Greenpeace and the liability and punitive measures also need to be enhanced and fixed properly. After Bt Cotton was released 10 years ago with no debate in the country,デュベティカ 激安, there was an outcry over the introduction of Bt Brinjal which has been put under indefinite moratorium in 2010. The proposed BRAI Bill fails to take into account the need for safeguarding health,デュベチカ 通販, making adequate risk assessments,デュベティカダウンジャケット, involving public debate and participation and the right to information,kevin durant nerf shoes, adds Greenpeace. Nationwide a campaign has been launched to oppose the Bill which will put India's biodiversity wealth at risk and farmers like Nagappa extremely vulnerable to an onslaught of GM crops. The lessons from Bt Cotton still have to be learnt. 相关的主题文章： http://arl.s66.xrea.com/2011/08/pso2-2.html#comments http://staging.madewithsense.com/archives/2010/05/we-love-lost-is-open-source/#comments http://www.singdoo.com/test/upload/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1203726&extra= http://www.11913.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=217315 http://www.bayliq.cn/ http://blogs.princeton.edu/main/2006/01/thumbnail-problem.html#comments http://www.8899cc.com/bbs/viewthread.php?tid=711386&extra= http://www.cnyunwei.net/ http://wszoo.258club.com/viewthread.php?tid=41553&extra= http://www.sidajs.com/bbs/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1129152 http://qmul-cssa.org.uk/forum/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=832710 http://teachitza.com/blog/blog/2008/09/delphi-database-how-to-guide.html#comments http://ai0513.com/ http://bbs.173joomla.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1061418 http://www.hatayan.org/weblog/archives/2009/08/13/215506.php#comments |
