Genetically Modified



In fact, much of our food we consume daily has been GM.

Rice for example is mostly GM, and farmers have been doing it since the dawn of agriculture.

Farmers cross pollinate domestic rice with wild rice to reproduce certain genetic characteristic in them, for eg, the fragrance and resistance to certain pests.

Good or bad?
I guess its up to individual tastes and preferences.
