Is Kofi Annan right to advise Africa against embracing genetically modified crops?
All crops are genetically modified. Man has been farming and improving crops since the beginning of farming itself. Yes genetically modified plants do reproduce. Africa needs all of the help it can get. It cannot afford to play politically correct games. Many on the continent are starving and need food, not grand pronouncements from corrupt politicians. If Kofi wants them to avoid genetically modified plants perhaps he can take Africa out to each for three meals a day. I am sure that he can afford it given all of the money that he stole from the Iraqi Oil For Food Program.
