I think for anyone to say that the practice is all good or all bad would be clearly inaccurate.

There is clearly something to be gained here, but there is a downside that can't be ignored.

Quote:The take-home message is that while GM crops have delivered benefits for farmers and the environment, there is still need for caution to prevent spread of resistance, both to "feral" crop escapees and to natural weeds.

I guess until more research information becomes available, I'm going to have to remain happily perched on the fence. Tongue
