Have you ever wondered why "pepper" is classified as a vegetable?

Here is why 👇. #issathread

#agriculture #farmers #agribusiness
First of all, the matured ovaries of any plant is what develops into a fruit. Pepper, of course, is one of them.
Therefore, botanically, any kind of pepper is fruit.

FOCUSED WEALTH: I have a pretty diverse network, thanks to #socialmedia. I meet incredible people offline that I first met online. Some of them are accomplished investors. I have noticed a trend.
#Thread #InvestInYou #Investment #Money
There's a gentleman who always speaks about #venturefunding in the #renewableenergy sector. Honestly, my eyes glaze over when he goes on about turbines and solar panels and the projects he's working on in Brazil. This is because venture funding is not my area of strength.
One day he told me his revenue projections and my eyes popped at the numbers.

🔥🔥 MUST READ THREAD - EXTREMELY IMPORTANT 🔥🔥

Our government was infiltrated by COMMUNISTS almost 20 years ago, at least, and it continues to this day. None other than George #Soros helped to accomplish it.

*Please retweet this thread, it needs to be seen!* 👇👇
This went on with the cooperation of #BillClinton and our own Congress with a pilot program in 1999 and a permanent agency in 2000.

"Les oiseaux disparaissent des campagnes françaises à une vitesse vertigineuse. Ce déclin catastrophique est largement dû aux pratiques de l'#Agriculture et à ses #Pesticides "
Décryptage d'une info qui fait le tour des rédactions
#Thread
mobile.lemonde.fr/biodiversite/a…
Jeudi 20 mars (en pleine semaine contre les #pesticides organisée par : semaine-sans-pesticides.fr/decouvrir-leve… ) un communiqué de presse va créer un buzz médiatique ...
Deux institutions scientifiques respectables (@CNRS et @Le_Museum) tirent le signal d'alarme : Les oiseaux disparaissent !
Heureusement, le coupable est rapidement identifié ! Et comme son casier judiciaire est déjà bien chargé...
Ce coupable idéal c'est #Agriculture ! En effet, un groupe d'oiseaux semble particulièrement concerné : les oiseaux des campagnes

La vérité sur les #OGM

Suite au visionnage du film Food Evolution (cf. )
@micha3lamal a rédigé un thread intéressant () dont je propose ici une traduction

(Mes commentaires personnels seront indiqués par la mention NT)
La vérité sur les OGM : un thread
J'ai longtemps été désireuse de faire un thread sur les #OGM et j'ai été inspirée par un documentaire que j'ai regardé la nuit dernière appelé Food Evolution.
(NT : ce documentaire est accessible à cette adresse foodevolutionmovie.com )
L'idée principale de ce documentaire est que la peur autour des OGM est largement basée sur la pseudoscience, et de vieux mythes bien ancrés/désastreux.
