Hawaii’s seed industry projected to fall in value

Aloha Kakou,

Appears to be an oddity in the decrease in the $$$ value (19%) of seed dollars being sold and the simultaneous increase in the volume of seed sold (67% or 12,700,000 or 12.7 million pounds). Is this because of what they call dumping overstock of the product on the market?

Hard to believe that the little old narrow strip of land on the Westside can produce that much poison saturated corn seed in a year. Certainly a “bumper crop”.

Perhaps the weight of each individual corn seed is doubled or tripled or quadrupled in weight due to the saturation of the poison caused by dowsing and dosing near daily 320 poison application days a year (previously reported in the Garden Island), now soon to be restricted to a buffer zone of 100’ from schools when children are in attendance.

That’s like a Saturday Night Live entertainment joke…or a sad hex on the kids in the schools, patients in hospital, drivers on the road, nature’s critters (from humans to puppy dogs to microbes and aquatic life) are all laid at the Seed Company’s sacrificial altar of the Westside

Clearly “mystified” poison’s mistified over-spray of Glyphosate and Chlorpyrifos, etc., can travel in the prevailing Tradwinds an easy 500’ and when gusting winds another 5000’ or about a mile.

What comes 1st in the value and concern in the production of life forms…poisoned corn profit or children? 12.7 million pounds of seed must be billions of seed pieces vs. the amount of precious children and adults being poisoned on the Westside…and even other places at the trail’e end of wind overspray.

Have the Foreign seed companies and our legislature no shame when they ignore the most precious forms of LIFE there can ever be to any family…their keiki?

Let’s see if given the choice to eat, would you choose the red hot dog or the fresh salad? Or the choice of a healthy child vs. a poisoned corn seed?

Maybe a reality check of counting how many actual pieces of corn seed are actually produced each year, not only giving us an accurate count of each individual seed of corn, but also employing countless amount of seed counters?

“Bring down that wall, Mr. Gorbachev”, er…we mean Mr. Trump, we need more bean…er, we mean more corn counters…! ! !

Mahalo,
