Farmer Finds Surprising Results When He Sends GMO Crop ‘Dust’

Farmer advised to wear face mask for protection

It should come as no surprise that crop dust – that is, dirt and other contaminants that accumulate mostly during harvest season – is full of some questionable ingredients. What one farmer found when he sent some dust from his hog building outside his brother’s and father’s farms where they grow Liberty Link and Roundup Ready corn is a little more shocking.

The farmer collected some dust from the corners of the building where he housed his pigs and sent it to a lab, simply labeling it ‘hog dust.’ Midwest labs sent back their results:

The ‘hog dust’ contained:

“Liberty Link corn dust, Roundup Ready corn dust

Total mold count 14,000 cfu/g 7,200,000 cfu/g 15,600,000 cfu/g

Aspergillus sp. (other) 10,000 cfu/g 7,000,000 cfu/g 15,600,000 cfu/g

Penicillium sp 3,000 cfu/g 200,000 cfu/g —”
