Archaeologist Revives Ancient Plants
#16
RE: Archaeologist Revives Ancient Plants
I object to the word "Greenie" unfortunately here in Oz is means something rather sinister and nothing to do with Horti/Agri Culture.

I do find it curious that so many object to G-M food (focusing on the genetic part) when in reality ALL of our food crops have been genetically modified as Rhythm points out.

It is always nice to find an ancient strain of a food crop and "bring it back to life" one never knows... it just may have the genes to help out in a current situation or feed those where no other food crop will grow??
