On top of that the use of the GM technology makes farmers

dependent on one or two companies. The Enron story should teach us

not
to depend on one company.

total rubbish.

Read about the Indian Cotton debacle.


yes, they had a drought

..

Is funny how the GMO cotton had a drought and non GMO did not.
India is big. Only part of india is having a drought.


I think you better wait for next planting time. If Indian farmers think that
GM cotton is rubbish, they will not plant it. If, on the other hand, they
reckon it did pretty well and and the problems are purely hyped up by a lot
of antis, then they will plant it.
