Led by Science and Technology Secretary Estrella Alabastro, the experts said Bt corn, which uses the soil bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis and was initially cultivated in 129 hectares of farms in South Cotabato in 2002, is resistant to borers, which destroy up to 80 percent of the corn produced in the country.
