Default Re: Article: GM Banana Designed to Increase Vitamin A in the Diets of the Poor in Afr

If the people are used to growing the bananas and will grow a newer variety that's richer in vitamin A, then good. Vitamen A deficiency is a wicked terrible thing to have happening to kids. Considering how bananas propagate, once they have some, they wouldn't need to continue getting more "patented" bananas, since they still clone themselves.
