Seeding Ground [3]
Wired magazine has a great article in their May 2004 issue [4] on "gene science [that] is Earth-friendly and all-natural." So...genetic engineering our food may be not the best course of action afterall. Thank goodness! For example, savory, high-yield fruit (that) would ripen on the vine and remain firm in transit...Researchers are beginning to understand plants so precisely that they no longer need transgenics to achieve traits like drought resistance, durability, or increased nutritional value."
Wired calls them, "Superorganics - nutritious, delicious, safe, abundant crops that require less pesticide, fertilizer, and irrigation."
