Zim must think abt it's genetic wealth of natural capital, support local seed dev and not depend on multinationals ...says Andrew Mushita

Seed companies being bought by multinationals and what's there for Zim, shareholders want money and don't care about Zim in food production
GMOs patents&royalties makes seed more expensive for the poor, the food sector will fall in hands of giants. And where is Zimbabwe in this?
Issue not about GMOs but trade.says mushita of CDTD.GMOs seed cost more than ordinary seed, wht increases productivity is breeding not GMOs
Zim loses 30% of its food, world produces enough food but much of it is lost says says mr mushita of CDTD
World not facing a food shortage but foodvwastage, hence no to GMOs, problem not production but distribution, food lost annually is 750 Bln
Three quarters of medicines in today's mkt are bio tech..so is food, if you eat yoghurt do you know what you are eating asks Zim NBA
