Agricultores estadounidenses han presentado dos demandas colectivas contra la <\/span><\/strong>mayor empresa mundial de biotecnolog\u00eda, Monsanto, tras el hallazgo de campos de trigo gen\u00e9ticamente modificado en el estado de Oreg\u00f3n.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

…….<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

……<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

El Departamento de Agricultura de EE.UU. (USDA, por sus siglas en ingl\u00e9s) comenz\u00f3 a investigar el caso despu\u00e9s de que un granjero de Oreg\u00f3n descubriera un campo con\u00a0trigo biotecnol\u00f3gico<\/span><\/a> no autorizado. <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

……<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

…….
\n
\nEl granjero envi\u00f3 muestras del trigo a la Universidad Estatal de Oreg\u00f3n<\/strong> que se puso en contacto con el USDA, y este confirm\u00f3 que se trataba del trigo transg\u00e9nico cultivado durante los experimentos gen\u00e9ticos que\u00a0Monsanto<\/span><\/a> llev\u00f3 a cabo en 16 estados del pa\u00eds entre los a\u00f1os 1998<\/strong> y 2005, lo que quiere decir que esa variedad de trigo modificado gen\u00e9ticamente fue desarrollada a\u00f1os atr\u00e1s pero no est\u00e1 aprobada para la venta ni el consumo. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

……<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

…..<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

En las demandas presentadas contra el gigante de biotecnolog\u00eda los agricultores afirman que Monsanto deb\u00eda haber tenido en cuenta que los experimentos con trigo transg\u00e9nico representaban cierto riesgo para los granjeros. <\/strong>Los demandantes acusan a la empresa de negligencia y exigen compensaciones por los da\u00f1os sufridos.
\n…….<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

…….
\nPor ejemplo,\u00a0Ernest Barnes<\/span><\/a>, un productor de trigo de Kansas, que fue el primero en demandar a Monsanto el pasado 5 de junio, exigi\u00f3 100.000 d\u00f3lares por las p\u00e9rdidas que<\/strong> le ha originado la bajada del precio del trigo causada por el descubrimiento de las semillas transg\u00e9nicas en la zona. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

…..<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

….<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Los agricultores tambi\u00e9n piden que Monsanto descontamine tierras de cultivo,<\/strong> equipos e instalaciones de almacenamiento que puedan contener semillas gen\u00e9ticamente modificadas.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

……<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

…….<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Asimismo, los demandantes aseguraron que \u00abla empresa conoc\u00eda los posibles efectos perjudiciales que pod\u00eda tener el uso de este tipo de cultivos en el mercado<\/strong>\u00bb se\u00f1alando que la presencia en\u00a0EE.UU.<\/span><\/a> de trigo gen\u00e9ticamente modificado afect\u00f3 al mercado tanto nacional como mundial y puso en peligro las exportaciones.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

La mitad de la cosecha de trigo del pa\u00eds se exporta, lo que representa unos ingresos anuales de 9.000 millones de d\u00f3lares. Despu\u00e9s de que los funcionarios del Departamento de Agricultura de EE.UU. confirmaran que el trigo de Oreg\u00f3n proced\u00eda de semillas de Monsanto, Jap\u00f3n, Corea del Sur y M\u00e9xico suspendieron in<\/strong>mediatamente las importaciones de EE.UU. Por su parte, la Uni\u00f3n Europea, que importa normalmente m\u00e1s de un mill\u00f3n de toneladas de trigo anuales desde EE.UU., estableci\u00f3 un control m\u00e1s riguroso del cereal procedente del pa\u00eds<\/span><\/p>\n

S.<\/span> farmers<\/span> have<\/span> filed<\/span> two<\/span> suits<\/span> against<\/span> the<\/span> largest<\/span> global<\/span> company<\/span> in<\/span> biotechnology<\/span>, Monsanto<\/span>, after<\/span> the<\/span> discovery<\/span> of<\/span> genetically<\/span> modified<\/span> in<\/span> the<\/span> State<\/span> of<\/span> Oregon<\/span> wheat<\/span> fields<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The U.S. Department of agriculture.UU. (USDA) began to investigate the case after an Oregon farmer discovered a field with unauthorized biotech wheat.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

…………..<\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Farmer sent samples of the wheat to the Oregon State University who was contacted by the USDA, and this confirmed it was the transgenic wheat grown for genetic experiments that Monsanto took place in 16 States of the country between 1998 and 2005, which means that that variety of modified wheat was genetically developed years ago but it is not approved for sale or consumption.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

……………<\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

In the lawsuits against biotechnology giant farmers claim that Monsanto should have taken into account that experiments with transgenic wheat represented a risk for farmers. The plaintiffs accuse the company of negligence and demanded compensation for the damage suffered.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

………….<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, Ernest Barnes, a producer of wheat in Kansas, which was the first to sue Monsanto last June 5, demanded $100,000 for the losses that has led it to the fall in the price of wheat caused by the discovery of transgenic seeds in the area.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

……….<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Farmers also asked Monsanto to decontaminate arable land, equipment and storage facilities that may contain genetically modified seeds.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

…………..<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Also, the plaintiffs claimed that \u00abthe company knew the possible detrimental effects that the use of this type of crops could have on the market\u00bb by pointing out that the presence in the United States.UU. genetically modified wheat affected both domestic and global market and endangered exports.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

…………….<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Half of the country’s wheat crop is exported, representing $ 9 billion annual revenues. After officials of the U.S. Department of agriculture.UU. confirm that the Oregon wheat came from seeds from Monsanto, Japan, South Korea and Mexico immediately suspended imports of us.UU. For its part, the European Union, which normally imports more than one million tonnes of wheat a year from us.UU., established a more rigorous control of the grain from the country.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
