George Naylor and the Crisis in US Farms

George Naylor, National Family Farm Coalition President, grows corn and soybeans in Iowa. In footage from his presentation at the May 2003 Biodevastation 7 conference in St. Louis, he accuses Monsanto of seeking world-wide control of farmers and consumers. Host Don Fitz and guest Daniel Romano, 2002 Green Party candidate for US Senator from Missouri, discuss Naylor's claim that agribusiness seeks to convince people that genetic contamination is so extensive that it is impossible to grow natural food. Art Friedrich of the Independent Media Center describes harassment by St. Louis police during Biodevastation 7, suggesting an effort to prevent people from hearing speakers such as Naylor.
