  10. Genetic Technology (GM) The first biotechnology plants were developed in 1983 GM foods were on the supermarket shelves by 1994

  11. Genetic Technology (GM) The first biotechnology plants were developed in 1983 GM foods were on the supermarket shelves by 1994 GM crop coverage presently 50 million hectares worldwide

  17. Another major problem: 40% of the world exist on rice • Traditional edible rice contains no carotenoids • This results in Vit A deficiency which can result in • Permanent blindness • Respiratory infections • Diarrhoea • Measles • Growth problems • Two genes from the daffodil which code for the enzymes which produce beta carotenoid can be inserted into rice DNA which then grows containing beta carotene
