Activists mobilized across the country tostand in solidarity with communities affected by Monsanto and reject theeviction of a Monsanto protest camp.

阿根廷各地活动家与遭受孟山都危害民众社区团结在一起,拒绝驱逐反对孟山都的抗议营地。


Hundreds of demonstrators took to the streetsin Argentina to protest Monsanto following news of an impending eviction at akey resistance camp blocking a huge Monsanto GMO seed plant in the agriculturalprovince of Cordoba.

民众在阿根廷农业省Cordoba州孟山都巨型的转基因种子工厂建立了抗议营地。该抗议营地将遭到驱逐的消息,引发了阿根廷各地众多民众抗议示威。


Protests in Buenos Aires and other majorcities on Friday slammed Monsanto over the dangers of widespread use of toxicagrochemicals on large-scale export crops like GMO soy and corn that coverlarge swathes of agricultural areas, shouting slogans like “Monsanto, get out!”

2016年1月8日,首都布宜诺斯艾利斯与阿根廷其他大城市民众举行反对孟山都示威,抗议大规模种植用于出口的转基因大豆、转基因玉米广泛喷洒的草甘膦除草剂等农业化学品造成的毒性,民众高呼:“孟山都,滚出去!”


“Buenos Airessays no to Monsanto!”

“布宜诺斯艾利斯对孟山都说不!”


The protests stood in solidarity with theMonsanto blockade in the Malvinas Argentinas municipality in the province ofCordoba, where a resistance camp has managed to suspend construction of a newMonsanto GMO seed plant.

抗议者坚定支持阿根廷Cordoba省首府马尔维纳斯市封锁孟山都的民众,他们建立抗议营地阻碍孟山都建设一个新的转基因种子工厂。

分析:拉丁美洲的未来与可持续的自给农业绑在一起。

The camp was recently handed down aneviction notice, prompting the day of action against Monsanto’s project inMalvinas Argentinas and ongoing presence across the country.

反对孟山都的抗议营地最近收到将遭到驱逐的通告,触发与阿根廷各地反对孟山都在马尔维纳斯市建设转基因种子工程项目。


Activists set up the blockade in 2013,self-organized under the banner of being “in favor of food sovereignty andlife.” The camp has successfully blocked the completion of the GMO plant.

反对孟山都的志愿者2013年自发建立了封锁这个项目建设的抗议营地,行动口号是:“为了食物主权与生命”。这个抗议营地两年来成功阻止了孟山都这个转基因种子工厂的完工。


“In Rosario wealso say “Out with Monsanto!” Against agrochemicals, for food sovereignty andour people!”

“在罗萨里奥(阿根廷东部港市),为了食物主权与我们的人民,我们也高呼‘孟山都滚出去’反对农业化学品!”


The latest wave of anti-Monsanto protestscome after Buenos Aires Governor Maria Eugenia Vidal appointed former Monsantoexecutive Leonardo Sarquis as the Minister of Agriculture in the province.Sarquis was the general manager of Monsanto's vegetable seed division forArgentina, Uruguay and Paraguay from 2005 to 2007.

布宜诺斯艾利斯省长任命孟山都前高管Leonardo Sarquis担任该省农业厅长,引发了上一波抗议孟山都的浪潮。2005-2007年期间,Leonardo Sarquis在孟山都负责在阿根廷、乌拉圭与巴拉圭推销孟山都的蔬菜种子。


President Mauricio Macri has also shown hissupport for big agribusiness in his first month in office.

阿根廷新当选总统马克里上任伊始,立即表明对大规模农业巨头公司的支持。

In a move he promoted as a boost toagricultural production, Macri scrapped export taxes on big agriculturalcorporations producing corn, wheat, and beef, and lowered taxes on soybeans,eliminating a key funding source of social programs and infrastructuregovernments under his Kirchnerist predecessors.

为了推动农业生产,马克里总统取消了生产玉米小麦牛肉农业巨头公司的出口税,降低了他们大豆出口的税率,取消了前任支持社会机会与基础设施的资金支持。


“Malvinasresists for life!”

“马尔维纳斯为生命抗争!”


Argentina is the world’s largest soybeanproducer, and Monsanto sees the country as a target for future growth.

阿根廷是世界上最大的大豆生产国,孟山都将阿根廷示威未来增长的目标。


According to activists, the province ofCordoba where Monsanto wants to build the GMO plant is suffering an“environmental emergency.”

抗议活动家们说,孟山都建设转基因种子工厂的阔多巴省正在遭受“环境性危机”。


The movement against Monsanto,agrochemicals, and GMOs in Argentina is part of a larger mobilization of socialorganizations and researchers across Latin America that have also spoken outagainst Monsanto products in pursuit of wider ban of the biotechnology companyin the region.

阿根廷反对孟山都、农业化学品与转基因的运动,是拉丁美洲更大规模社会组织与研究者抗争运动的一部分,他们公开反对孟山都的产品,追求更广泛禁绝拉丁美洲所有的生物技术公司。
