A new multimedia website,
Conversations about Plant Biotechnology at
http://www.monsanto.com/biotech-gmo offers visitors a
glimpse of the discussions taking place among farmers on the
impact of genetically modified crops a decade since they
were first introduced and after more than one billion acres
of these crops have been harvested worldwide.
The site features informative
and compelling video clips with farmers from countries as
diverse as India, Spain, Canada, South Africa, Australia,
Argentina, the Philippines and the United States. These farmers
discuss the benefits that biotech crops have had on their farms,
families, communities and the environment. Biotech-gmo.com also
offers candid viewpoints from eminent global experts, such as
Dr. Norman Borlaug -- Nobel Laureate and leader of the Green
Revolution.
Visitors to the site can
sign-up for a service that alerts subscribers when new video
content is available. To view these "Conversations about Plant
Biotechnology," please visit

The site is hosted by the
Monsanto Company. |
