A chemical pesticide and herbicide-free environment. Poor people getting free
doses of beta carotene just by eating rice.

These are but some of the claimed benefits of biotechnology -- genetic
engineering to be specific.

Agroseed Phils., which is currently conducting field trials in Lagao, General
Santos City together with the UP Institute for Plant Breeding to test the
adaptability of a genetically engineered corn variety, said they will still try
