As far as i can understand EVERY PLANT USED AS A FOOD CROP TODAY IS GMO'ED
As for Monsantos the GMO-ing of food crops to a specific fertiliser (produced by said company) with "kill switches" is reprehensible.
We have had here is Oz a group who decided that the obliteration of a test crop of GMO wheat (that would survive Aussie drought) should be wiped out because...the CSIRO are not be ethical??? Sorry WTF?? CSIRO develop a plant that performs in our drought ridden country and these 'do-goodies' kill it??
One thing is clear that our food sources are a priority...witness Asia buying up Aussie Farms to secure food for their population; ... so anything that can help should be funded and nurtured. imho
