In 2007 around the world genetically modified food totaled 6.9 billion US dollars worth of production, that is money the governments are able to redirect towards adequate housing, public healthcare, or education. Farmers earning less than then thousand US dollars per year can acquire seeds free that will continue to yield annually, this is because genetically altered foods carry a humanitarian license. Growing genetically modified food is a far more sustainable strategy than repeated funding of supplements or constant imports since the seeds of most genetically modified crops are not sterile. Ninety-four percent of farmers in the Philippines support genetically modified food for it’s high yields and ask only that it is safe to eat. In North America we are concerned with trends, a recent one being the push for organic food and because of the wealth and privilege of this nation we are able to be picky, however the starving people of the world don’t care to be as demanding of their food production as long as there is food. With a population over 7.6 billion and only 37.7 percent of global hectors considered agricultural land the claims of Charles Benbrookn and Margaret Mellon that we have no food shortage is difficult to believe, let alone the seasonal change that causes many areas of the world to be unable to cultivate food for months at a time and the perishable nature of naturally selected crops. Sixty percent of corn grown in the United States of America is used to feed livestock, although that
