上面最后一篇论文指出,2003-2004年度,印度安得拉邦的棉花种植区棉农实际种植结果与孟山都公司宣称的情况大相径庭:
愿景:
Three of the most important claims are:
· Cultivation of Bt cotton will reduce pesticide use considerably
· Cultivation costs will come down significantly
· Farmers will enhance their profits
事实结果:
The number of very interesting results point out to the fact that Bt cotton has once again let down small and marginal farmers in the dryland districts of Warangal, Adilabad and Kurnool in Andhra Pradesh. The facts are :
·In comparison to non-Bt hybrids, pesticide use has not drastically come down in Bt cultivation
·Costs of cultivating Bt cotton is higher compared to non Bt cultivation
·The Bt Cotton yields were barely 2% higher compared to non Bt cotton.
·Having paid higher price for Bt seeds and investing more money on its cultivation, farmers in fact earned more profits through cultivation of non Bt cotton than through Bt Cotton |
