I hate that the U.S. encouraged the whole GMO & Roundup Ready crops. I was listening to a guy Saturday that was talking about pollinators and butterflies. He said that there used to be large agricultural areas in some states that had just tons of milkweeds...not to mention other host plants for butterflies. The Monarchs would use the milkweeds during the growing season...now, all that is almost gone due to GMO. Milkweeds in particular have alsmost disappeared in some states. One reason for the decline of Monarchs. He came to Texas to give a talk because it's such an important state for butterflies. He painted a dim picture for the future of certain butterfly species if all that habitat loss continues.
