Another upcoming matter of great interest to Monsanto: the new farm bill, an omnibus piece of legislation that sets the nation's agricultural policy and deals with nearly every aspect of the country's farming and food industries. The current bill expires in 2013; when it went through Congress, Monsanto filed more lobbying reports on it than any other organization. The process of piecing together a new proposal is already well under way.

The company's access to members of Congress who are likely to be key in shaping the final legislation may be eased by the contributions of its very active PAC, the Monsanto Citizenship Fund. Already this cycle it has spent $383,000. The biggest recipient of that money so far is Rep. Frank D. Lucas (R-Okla.) who has received $20,000 from Monsanto's PAC -- $10,000 for his campaign committee and $10,000 for his leadership PAC. Lucas happens to be the chairman of the House Agriculture Committee -- no farm-related legislation is passed without his say-so.

Monsanto has hedged its investment with the agriculture committee, though -- it also gave $13,500 to Rep. Collin Peterson (D-Minn.), the top-ranking Democrat on the committee. So far this election cycle, Monsanto's PAC has given $77,500 to 17 members of the House agriculture committee, or their leadership PACs.

There is some logic in there somewhere, but no science. Buzz Clik Jan 2013 #18

No, but the pesticides required to grow them might be. KittyWampus Jan 2013 #26

And these pesticides do not differ from the pesticides used on non-GMO crops. Buzz Clik Jan 2013 #30

GMO crops may be increasing pesticide use - not decreasing like was sposed to happen according to Agony Jan 2013 #46

No argument here. Buzz Clik Jan 2013 #51
