This is proof billionaires are diabolically evil, but cover it up as charity. Golden Rice was sold as the fix for malnutrition, funded first by the Rockefellers, then Bill Gates. The farmers became so fed up with their 2030 agenda that they literally tore the crops out of the ground to stop it. Agenda that they literally tore the crops out of the ground to stop it. The GMO crop was started from a real problem. Vitamin a deficiency affects more than fifteen percent of children under six in The Philippines. When kids don't get enough, it can quickly turn to blindness. That makes the argument for turning their staple food of rice into a GMO version that supplements the vitamin a kids are missing. So in came golden rice, which is modified to contain beta carotene, which converts in the body to vitamin a. But where this all starts to collapse is when you realize a local sweet potato has five times more beta carotene per gram than golden rice. So protesters vandalized a 1,000 square meter field testing site at the Department of Agriculture's experiment station. These opponents argued that diverse diets of local crops do the job without GMO risk from questionable funders like the Rockefellers and Gates. Under this system, farmers also weren't allowed to save seeds and had to constantly buy them again from this billionaire backed company making the country question what the intention really was. In April 2024, the court of appeals revoked the commercial permits for golden rice in all of The Philippines citing unresolved health rank. Ultra wealthy investors funded a biotech solution that makes sense at surface level, but when you dig deeper, local food was the real answer all along. Their vitamin a deficiency could be fixed using the sweet potatoes and carrots around them. The Localize app was created to point out these obvious solutions.
