A tomato is a tomato to me sorry. I'm sure you can tell the difference, and maybe I could if I cared more about it, but I'd rather go for the one that costs the least amount, it all makes bolognase in the end.
I suppose you could also call a foodie as someone who gives a fuck. Same goes for wine, I don't like acidic wines, but otherwise, mostly not caring.
Also the government funding, as Tiberius dug a bit deeper (cheers) is going public domain, which restricts your "blockade" concept.
In terms of the GM crops, crops that can withstand drought more hardily will easily benefit countries which struggle to grow basic crops, and reduce the amount that is lost. You obtain greater yield from the same square acre, and greater nutrition from the plants themselves.
Forests are being decimated by farmers trying to find more productive soil, that would be solved by varients of GM crop, which will have a far more destructive element to the environment than anything the crops introduce. (Original Source: Fedoroff, N.V. and Cohen, J.E. (1999) 'Plants and population: Is there time?')
The multinationals who control much of these GM crops, are starting to show increased interest in donating their crops to developinng countries (Source: Qaim, M. (1998) Transgenic virus resistant potatoes in Mexico: Potential socioeconomic implications of north-south biotechnology transfer.)
Hopefully this will become a reality sooner rather than later.
Before I respond to the claim that supply is going downhill due to reduction in buying power, I'd like to see the original source thou.

If you’re going to watch tele, you should watch Scooby Doo. That show was so cool because every time there’s a church with a ghoul, or a ghost in a school. They looked beneath the mask and what was inside?
The f**king janitor or the dude who runs the waterslide. Throughout history every mystery. Ever solved has turned out to be. Not Magic. ― Tim Minchin, Storm
