Anti-GE activists spin a narrative that large agribusiness companies have seduced farmers into planting GMO crops where it’s legal, such as in Argentina, Australia, the US, Brazil and Canada. Farmers, in their narrative, are either ignorant of the damage they are causing to the soil, too greedy to care, or get trapped in the GMO treadmill after buying patented seeds that they can’t reuse from season to season. In other words, they are portrayed as pawns of greedy agribusinesses and mad scientists conducting a vast scientific experiment without regard to the possible public costs.
