90. Noooo. That's not what it would mean. |

If they can't afford the Round--up Ready crops than they keep growing what they've always grown.
It's like medicine. If someone develops a new treatment for malaria, does that mean more people die from malaria? Nope. It means that the people who can't afford it are still up the creek. That's capitalism for you. Now, there's plenty of stuff getting around that helps poor people get the medicine they need, on humanitarian reasons. Same thing with GM. Monsanto's bending backwards to make sure that the people who need what they've got get it. Golden rice for example.
How does GM food make subsistence farming harder?
