Northern California farmers and consumers are challenging Monsanto and
the biotech industry directly. In Mendocino County CA, voters will soon
be deciding whether or not to ban genetically modified crops, once and
for all. The vote will be held March 2, 2004 and would make the county
the first in the U.S. to ban genetically engineered crops. The ballot
initiative has been organized and supported by local farmers and
citizens, but they are being outspent 50 to 1 by biotech and
agribusiness front groups. OCA encourages people everywhere to follow
Mendocino’s example and go on the offensive. Your help is needed:
