Philippines may approve GMO rice clipped by: woodson clippers remarks: The Philippines, the worlds largest rice importer, is one of several countries currently in field tests for GMO rice crops Clip Source: www.reuters.com Philippines may approve GMO rice The Philippines, the worlds largest rice importer, is one of several countries currently in field tests for GMO rice crops, Robert Zeigler, director general of the Philippines-based International Rice Research Institute (IRRI), said at the Reuters Food and Agriculture Summit. Golden Rice, a Vitamin A-enriched grain developed by the IRRI is being bred into local varieties as well in Bangladesh, India, Indonesia and Vietnam as part of testing to ensure safety, he said. "Theres some possibility that it would be the Philippines that will get approval next, for Golden Rice. Probably late 2011 or early 2012," Zeigler said. "Bangladesh will follow very shortly thereafter and India, probably a year or two later." The availability of Golden Rice, which contains genes from maize and other sources of beta-carotene, was expected to address the deficiency of the micronutrient, Vitamin A, especially among the poor in Asia. zum Artikel...
