How to feed the 9 billion people advertised on the planet in 2050 ? A tv show has convinced Marie-Monique Robin to continue sti investigations on the urgency to produce otherwise. President of the national Association of the food industry, Jean-René Buisson stated that no alternative to the pesticides was not possible, and that organic farming would result in a decrease of the production of 40 % for a price increase of 50 %. Special Rapporteur on the right to food of the united Nations, Olivier De Schutter, claimed exactly the opposite. Who to believe ? Investigating in the four corners of the globe, the journalist met farmers who have given up these insecticides and pesticides for which the indirect costs and vast pollution, energy and public health – are never taken into account.
