Monica Vargas de @GRAIN in conversation with journalist Gina Rigols about #TechnoFeudalism vs #FoodSovereignty
-> #bigtech and #bigagroo corporations intimately working together to "help" transforming farmers being more productive based on pesticides, tech platforms, privatisation of natural knowledge
-> they increasingly know and control what we eat
-> otoh, we are what we eat
-> 70% of global population is active in farming
-> what kinds of resistance are farmers waging against this?
--> resistance against int'l trade agreements (that facilitate this bigtech bigagro privatisation of code and data)
--> collective seed banks where communities keep seeds, share knowledge
-> also fight tax paradises, that help keep this status quo
