Guest guest Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 Despite the naysayers, perhaps the greatest testament to the Green Revolution's legacy is the growth of biotechnology in the Third World. From South America to Southeast Asia, farmers are discovering that biotech crops are so superior, they are willing to risk breaking existing laws to plant them. During the last year, Brazilian farmers more than doubled cultivation of genetically enhanced soybeans, with more than 150 million acres under production. And when local bureaucrats tried to over-regulate biotech cotton, Brazilian farmers smuggled in seeds from Argentina and Australia. from The Center for Consumer Freedom. Scary that they will shortly be shipping it here. *sigh* Kay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
