  • Biotechnology, mechanisation, and herbicides have radically changed the lives of small farmers in Latin America. For farmers in Paraguay, this means displacement from their land, loss of basic food supplies, and a veritable fight for survival. As corporate farms seize farmland and rapidly expand production of genetically modified soy, farmers like Geronimo Arevelos find themselves in a life-and-death struggle.
    Raising Resistance illustrates the mechanisms of a global economy that relies on ‘monocrop’ agriculture and corporate ownership of land. In telling the story of Paraguay, Raising Resistance poses the larger question of whether the global community wants to go on living with a system that allows one crop to prosper at the expense of all others.
    Raising Resistance explores Latin American farmers’ struggle against the expanding production of genetically modified soy in South America.

    They must stop the deforestation as well. In the last 30 years it decreased from 64% to less than 40%. How can these soy businessmen sleep at night?

      On the other hand lots of plastic is used, sold as packaging etc, and people are burning it on their own land , poisoning it even more as there's no waste management. Coca cola is still a popular drink, children are also drinking it, parents don't know that it's a health hazard. For how long there is destruction of ancient land and people?

    Very interesting video. I think all across the globe, this problem is coming to light! The high cost of food is becoming a huge concern also.
