[Title] => BPI okays 4th GMO corn variety for commercial production
[Summary] => The Bureau of Plant Industry (BPI) recently approved for commercial production the fourth biotech corn variety known as "stacked-trait corn" or Mon810/NK developed by Monsanto Philippines.
According to the BPI, the stacked-train corn is a superior variety, since it is both resistant to insects while tolerant with herbicides.
Through genetic engineering, the company introduced the Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) gene that enables the corn plant to resist the attacks of Asiatic corn borer, a dreaded insect pest that can cause as much as 80-percent yield reduction.

[Title] => Private sector key to competitive food and agribusiness industry
[Summary] => The private sector remains the key driver in the development of the domestic food and agribusiness sector toward global competitiveness, an industry expert said.
"While state intervention would be crucial and strategic in the pursuit of competitiveness, still much of the progress would be private sector-driven because of the compelling element of self-preservation," said Francisco Buencamino, this year’s chairman of the Agrilink and Foodlink, the country’s biggest and most prestigious annual international agribusiness and food trade show.
