The reason GM food will not go away is that we need a three-fold increase in food production by the year 2050 to keep 【C3】______ with the world’s 【C4】______ population growth to ten or eleven billion. It’s not just a question of more mouths to feed either. 【C5】______ is often forgotten is that all these extra people will take up space,reducing the overall land 【C6】______ for agriculture.
It may well be that in the long term it is the developing world 【C7】______ benefits most from GM foods. It’s true that for the next ten years or so GM crops may be 【C8】______ expensive. But the lesson of personal computers is applicable here—once the technology has been developed for money spinning crops, 【C9】______ maize, soy beans and cotton,it will become 【C10】______ for all.

We have been refining species of wheat for several thousand years. Genetic engineers like me are not doing anything as 【C14】______ as making a cabbage into a cauliflower 【C15】______ has been done by plant breeders in the past.
We’re simply tapping into the whole gene pool, rather than concentrating on one species at a time.
