Please vote NO on Bill 113 and let us return to our jobs of feeding Hawaii. . .. Name: X.91 t4r46:7 City where I liv e �� Additional Comments: Testimony Against Hawaii County Anti-Farming Bill 113 V ' C 7--c> ,'�.r/AJb = L ' q 4rri strongly Opposed to Bill 113 because any anti-GMO legislation in Hawaii County will discriminate against myself and all farmers and ranchers who choose to use approved genetically engineered technology to grow safe and wholesome food and other agriculture products. Why I Choose to Oppose Bill 113 (Please check the boxes you agree with or write in your own) ❑ Papaya Farmers coexist every day; we grow GMO Papaya and non gmo papaya; providing ag exports and a safe high quality affordable food...What other local foods can you buy for 4 for a $1 and its da BEST! ❑ Prevents me from diversifying my operations, limits my options and solutions to new virus and diseases. ❑ The registration fee treats us like criminals and who is going to bear the cost of the administration and compliance? ❑ Adding more regulations and burdens will cause small farmers to quit! ❑ Stops research for local solutions for agriculture diversity. ❑ Increases our dependence on imported goods to sustain agriculture and Restricts the Future of Ranching and Farming in Hawaii. ❑ These Bills are forcing farmers to choose which side they are on...We need to stand together United; our choice of seed or farming practice is not a line in the sand; its manageable and we do it everyday! ❑ Understand Farming, Biotechnology and agriculture before you make us criminals and handcuff the Future of Farming. ❑ Convene a Task force with a solid foundation of Science, agriculture experts in their Ids and lets put together a plan for the Future of Farming in Hawaii; Do what is right. Do not allow hired activists to bully our farmers, ranchers, politicians and our community into drinking the fear mongering propaganda kool aid they are dispensing in our Communities, We are Hawaii and this is not how we do business or conduct ourselves. reThe process of Bill 79, 109 and 113 has been hurtful to agriculture, our communities and a waste of precious time when we have real battles facing agriculture. Lets work together with Aloha to make a positive difference for Hawaii and tackle the real issues ranchers face daily. I am a Hawaii Farmer and I Oppose Bill 113. Please vote NO on Bill 113 and let us return to our jobs of feeding Hawaii. . .. Name: iw City where I live: POI ot*, Additional Comments: .p / d� f 'C // d WY , r - 5 • .l- �� y d 6 4V 5
