“The Genetically Modified dream makes it harder to feed the world. There’s the constant claim that GM crops are just one tool in the toolbox for the future of farming. In fact, Genetically Modified food is the cuckoo in the nest. It drives out and destroys the systems that international scientists agree we need to feed the world. We need farming that helps poorer African and Asian farmers produce food, not farming that helps Bayer, Syngenta and Monsanto produce profits.”
