      A lot of farmers believe it would help them and I know in England there are many farmers who would welcome GM crops, although some wouldn’t.

      It would help farmers have a higher yield, but more importantly it would help then with stability. It would mean if there is a climate problem it’s less likely they will loose all their crops.

      In the US the majority of farmers have switched to GM crops. Again it’s a hard question to answer and a lot of people would give different opinions!
