British GM crop scientists win grant
I saw this a minute ago, I'm still torn about the whole GM subject. I can see the benefit in the improving plants. But I'm not convinced of the safety of the science behind it.

A team of British plant scientists has won a $10m (£6.4m) grant from the Gates Foundation to develop GM cereal crops.

It is one of the largest single investments into GM in the UK and will be used to cultivate corn, wheat and rice that need little or no fertiliser.

The full story will be on Countryfile tonight.
