Can GM Crops Feed The World?
” the Foundation hopes to generate interest in a range of possible lines of inquiry. These include research on the environmental, economic, and social effects of GM crops; on financing mechanisms needed to give small-scale farmers access to GM crops; on the capacity of GM crops to spark wealth creation in the developing world; and on public apprehensions and misinformation about the use of GM crops and how these might be overcome. The Foundation is still refining this Funding Priority for launch later this year. By June 15, we expect to post several Big Questions for applicants to consider as they prepare to submit Online Funding Inquiries starting on August 1.
