Hi Tap,
Picked up a couple of articles which I feel are worthy of mention by
comparison.

"The fact is that we're not making any more land. If we're going to
feed a growing population, raise the poorest out of poverty and
address these problems of food security, then in some cases GM may
actually be the answer. We've got to look for a significant and
sustainable intensification of agriculture".
"If we get it right, if we capture this opportunity, then we could
really see the UK benefit. If we get it wrong then we'll see museum
agriculture in Europe for the next 20 years".

Kind regards,
Gordon.

The correction to the second article now points out the grass is not GM. So could have happened anywhere in nature.
ReplyDeletePrussic acid is simply an alternative name for hydrogen cyanide. It's a liquid that boils and becomes a vapor (cyanide gas) a little below most mammals' body temperature. If a plant produces "prussic acid", it becomes hydrogen cyanide gas on warming after ingestion.
