The Need for Seed
Genetically modified seeds are due to become a very important issue, especially in developing countries, despite the fierce resistance against them.
In an article I read about Brazilian farmers selling illegal genetically modified corn seeds. This problem will continue, as biotechnology becomes ever more viable and easier to hack. It is time to recognize that genetically modified crops are demanded, and that trying to stop them by laws will not work. It would be far better if the EU stopped its ecoimperialism an instead helped the developing countries with much needed networking, informed decisionmaking and dialogue. Only then genetically modified crops can be adopted in a safe way.
