FOODCROPVIDEO. Pamela Ronald giáo sư của trường đại học UC Davis và bài phỏng vấn về gạo biến đổi gen trong vùng ngập ở các nước đang phát triển.
Many consider genetically engineered food controversial, but to Pamela Ronald a UC Davis professor, it could be the answer to feeding the world. Twenty five percent of the world's rice is grown in areas that are very prone to submergence, and after three days rice will die. Ronald's lab has genetically engineered rice to help the plant be tolerant to stress and disease. The varieties her team has developed can survive for two weeks underwater and are expected to improve the livelihood of millions of farmers in developing countries.
