i was just interested in the thoughts all of you might have about agriculture in our society today. also it is not a area that is very 'popular', presumably because many people can't see its benefits and so i thought it would be an interesting adn not-so-usual topic to bring up for discussion.

what i specifically wanted to talk about was how agriculture will be in the future, given the direction it is going in currently. in our world today, a lot of the foods, plants are modified, because monetarily, it is just more advantageous for the growers, suppliers adn etc. and although there are organic foods, the supply of organic foods is insufficient, adn the prices are too high to use such foods to effectively feed the world population.
and so some questions that are posed are
will genetically modified foods be the inevitable future?
if not, what alternatives are there?
what will the wide spread of genetically modified foods do to agriculture in the world?
and what impacts does the current trend/attitudes about agriculture have on developments in such an area?
P.S.
and also importantly,,,, do u know or have any thoughts about agro-terrorism or food-terrorism?
and what preventative/protective measure could you take to reduce the impacts of an attack
