520 _a"Leading scientists around the world have attested to the health and environmental safety of agricultural biotechnology, and they have called for bioengineered crops to be extended to those who need them most--hungry people in the developing world." (AMERICAN ENTERPRISE) This article reports that "the biggest threats that hungry populations currently face are restrictive policies stemming from unwarranted public fears" about agricultural biotechnology and stresses that the use of biotechnology will be necessary to feed the growing population in the poorest regions of the world over the next 50 years.
