USA - Organic milk is produced by cows who eat feed free of animal by-products from slaughter, and free of antibiotics, pesticides and hormones, like rBGH. Though its use is banned in Europe and Canada, rBGH is a genetically engineered hormone that was approved for use in the US in 1993 by the Food and Drug Administration. In other words, it hasn’t always been in our food supply. And it doesn’t deserve a place in it now. RGBH was first developed by the agricultural biotech corporation Monsanto to increase milk output in dairy cows. Monsanto’s production history includes the notoriously dangerous Agent Orange, PCB, Terminator seed: a sterile seed forcing farmers to purchase additional seed each year, Roundup: one of the most commonly used pesticides worldwide, and the pesticide DDT.
