Almost 40 million hectares have been planted to genetically modified or
transgenic crops in 12 countries.

And in the Philippines? Still a big fat zero.

Nongovernment organizations, hoisting the potential but still unproven risks
that GM crops might have in the country's agricultural ecosystems, continue to
oppose even the testing of transgenic crop in experimental fields in the
country.

They have aborted the testing of a Bt (Bacillus thuringiensis) corn in Bay,
Laguna.

Five government and private agriculture and research and development (R&D)
agencies and companies have expressed their all-out support for biotechnology
application in agriculture to boost food production in the country.

They presented position papers on their stand on the controversial issue at a
recent Senate hearing presided over by Sen. Sergio Osmeña III, chairman
of the Senate Committee on Agriculture and Food.

The Senate hearing was the first on the biotechnology issue, as touched off by
a privilege speech of Sen. Aquilino Pimentel, Jr.
