US Biotech Crop Plantings Surge Again

"The acreage of biotech corn plantings are up 9.7 percent to 46 percent of all corn planted in the U.S.; biotech soybean acreage increased 9.2 percent to 86 percent of all plantings; and biotech cotton acreage increased 9.1 percent to 76 percent of all plantings," according to a press release from the Biotechnology Industry Organization summarizing the results from the USDA's Prospective Plantings survey.

And still no scientific evidence that anyone has gotten so much as a sniffle or a bellyache from eating foods made with ingredients derived from genetically enhanced crops. Nevertheless, more Africans are at risk of starvation because of anti-biotech fears fanned by ideological environmentalists and European Union politicians.

BTW, I wonder how many European tourists pack their own GMO-free food before daring to visit the United States?
