Mexico is battleground in the global food wars

In the last two years, Mexico has become one of the major battlegrounds of the 21st century global food wars.

On one side of the battle line is Demanda Colectiva, a collective of 53 scientists, 22 civil rights organizations and NGO fighting to protect Mexico’s extraordinary wealth of food crop biodiversity; on the other is a coalition of companies favoring genetical modification led by US agribusiness giant Monsanto.
