Modern Biotechnology - which uses the knowledge of DNA to manipulate the genetic makeup of an organism
Recombinant DNA - take a gene from one organism and place it into another organism
Transgenic or GMO - an organism that contains DNA from another organism

Until recently the terms Genetically Modified Organism (GMO), GMO-Free and Non-GMO were used to help identify foods that contained genetically altered ingredients.
These terms are no longer recognized by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and therefore cannot be used on food packaging.

Roughly 400 million people in the world today are at risk of Vitamin A deficiency, which already affects 100-200 million children. Vitamin A deficiency causes various health problems, including blindness. Because rice is an important crop, eaten by almost half of the people in the world, the Rockefeller Foundation and the European Union funded research into varieties that might offer global health benefits.
It may now be possible, thanks to agricultural biotechnology, to make rice and other crops into additional sources of Pro-Vitamin A. With Monsanto's help, the developers of "Golden Rice" and mustard with more Pro-Vitamin A should one day be able to deliver their gift of better nutrition to the developing nations of the world through staple crops readily available to poor and vulnerable populations
Imagine sharing science to help others develop crops that could help reduce Vitamin A deficiency, a leading cause of blindness and infection among the young.
Imagine innovative agriculture that creates incredible things.
DiscussionDiscussion
Debate the Merits or Dangers of Golden Rice.
Group One - Make your case in front of Congress to obtain money to distribute this rice (as rice seed) to the farmers of Southeast Asia and Africa
Group Two - Argue against this.
