Overview: Disputes continue to flare over Genetically Modified (GM) crops, and their potential to enhance livelihoods in agricultural communities in developing nations. Benefits have been documented for a few GM crops, especially insect-resistant cotton. However, official permission to plant GM seeds on a commercial scale has not been granted in most countries, including a wide range of crops engineered by public research institutes in developing countries. This paper will examine progress in GM crop research from poorer nations, its regulatory status and direction, and whether or not results from this work can reach farmers.
