"We" - as in the Human Race - have outgrown the Earth's capacity for traditional agricultural production.

Therefore, to feed mankind, we have to alter our food supply.

I take it you grow and hunt all your own food? Or do you let someone else do that? Like the majority of the world.

Thank you Mr. Monsanto for your unbiased profit driven opinion, but bull fricking shite. This serves only one person's pocketbook, and the ones spreading all that nonsense to begin with, large industrial farming complexes, their shareholders, and the politicians who benefit from it all.

Why does it have to be an either or type thing?

It's not like there's not still plenty of room to continue to grow different varietals, while still planting more efficient strains for mass production.

It seems to me like that's what is happening more and more anyway, so I'm not sure I agree original premise here.
