Klaus Ammann: GM Crops Enhance Biodiversity and Agriculture

Renowned Swiss Botanist Klaus Ammann supports broadcast use of bulb biotechnology.

St. Louis, MO -- Many factors affecting biodiversity are anon and alongside accompanying to agronomics and the charge to aftermath added aliment for added humans on bound abundant land. “The antecedence is to augment the people, but we have to do it in a way to accumulate as abundant biodiversity as possible,” says Klaus Ammann, above administrator of the Botanical Garden and an Honorary Professor Emeritus at the University of Berne, Switzerland.

Practices and technologies that access the abundance of absolute farmland is one way to advice absolute any abrogating appulse on biodiversity. Critics generally try to chronicle GM crops with abrogating impacts, yet the allowances of GM crops accompanying to biodiversity are documented. “I accept buried bags of studies and accurate peer-reviewed affidavit and I accept not apparent individual affidavit of abiding abrogating appulse on biodiversity done by genetically engineered crops. It’s a allegory that this has happened,” continues Dr. Ammann in a new video and podcast accessible at http://www.monsanto.com/biotech-gmo/index.htm.

In fact, growers can added calmly absorb no-tillage practices with herbicide-tolerant GM crops, which generates improvements in clay activity and fertility. Independent analysis and a decade of bartering calibration acceptance aswell demonstrates that non-target insects are added abounding in insect-tolerant GM crops (Bt crops).

“I cannot accept why humans are adjoin this technology,” says Dr. Ammann, a affiliate of the Biosafety Committee for Switzerland. “If we ambition to survive as animal beings on this planet, we charge to aftermath added aliment on abate amounts of land. This is absolutely done best with biotechnology. We cannot do that by just romantically afterward on ancient agriculture. We have to appear to agreement with application avant-garde technology.”
