5 GMO Myths Debunked by Vandana Shiva
1. Myth of the Green Revolution
I
wrote a book for the United Nations University, "The Violence of the
Green Revolution," which has been republished by many publishers
globally, including the Kentucky University Press. Extracts from the
book are available on Google.
My
study was reinforced by the study done by Dr. Jatindar Bajaj, with whom
I did MSc Hons in Physics from Punjab University in 1973. His study
comparing pre and post Green Revolution performance showed that the rate
of growth of aggregate crop production was higher in the years before
the Green Revolution was introduced (1967-68) than after it.
