2007 BIO International Convention
--(BUSINESS WIRE)--2007 BIO International Convention:
WHAT: Worldwide, farmers are reaping the economic, social, and
environmental benefits of growing biotech crops. While the
United States leads the world in biotech crop acreage, over
9.5 million farmers in developing countries are now growing
biotech crops. Resource-poor farmers have repeatedly recounted
the economic rewards they have reaped by growing biotech
crops, the reduced health risks by decreasing pesticide
applications, the environmental benefits and farm management
solutions biotech crops have enabled, and the social advances
enjoyed by farming biotech crops. This panel of farmer
representatives from around the world will talk about farmer
success stories from growing biotech crops.
