摘要

It has been calculated that if sub-Saharan Africa continues to produce crops using current agricultural practices, we will have a cereal shortage of nearly a million tons by the year 2025. Clearly something has to be done. There is enough food produced in the world to feed everyone; the problem is how to get it to the people in need. Certainly we should stop wars and eliminate corruption so that food gets to the right people, and build roads and railways to transport food - but how long will that take? In the meantime genetically modified (GM) crops that give increased yields are just one of the ways in which we can tackle the problem. Because Europe and Scandinavia have enough food and don't want GM foods, should we allow them to dictate to us what is best for Africa?
