A former Monsanto employee, Kirk Azevedo, came forward for an interview with Food Nation Radio Network to give our listeners insight into how Monsanto does business. During the time he was employed there with some of the best minds in the biotech industry, he became alarmed by some of the practices Monsanto used to test new GMO crops, how those crops were disposed of after testing, and more.

Dr. Azevedo left the industry and is now a chiropractor in California, but as you’ll hear in this exclusive audio broadcast on Food Nation, he has grave concerns about Monsanto, their ongoing actions and their influence on government leaders.
