  • GMOs are the solution to many of our current problems, ie drought resistant crops, biofortification of nutrients, pest control. Most GMO laws are extremely outdated and do not consider current technologies and the fact we can safely perform on-target gene editing.

    Many modern plants we eat have been exposed to mutagens to generate modern variants, which is a completely random process and technically has a higher chance of producing dangerous outcomes when compared to targeted GM, yet that’s been perfectly legal for decades.

    Time to update. Good job NZ
