>>>In the September 1999 issue of, "News and Views: A 20/20 Vision for
>>>Food, Agriculture, and the Environment, " from IFPRI (International Food
>>>Policy Research Institute), there are two distinct viewpoints on
>>>agricultural biotechnology presented. One viewpoint is by A.F.
>>>Krattiger, Executive Director of the International Service for the
>>>Acquisition of Agri-Biotech Applications, Cornell University, U.S.A. and
>>>the other by F.L. Valente, M.D., Secretary General of the Global Forum
>>>on Sustainable Food and Nutritional Security, Brazil. These 2 viewpoints
>>>have some very interesting areas of divergence, and they make for some
>>>interesting discussion around some of the most fundamental questions
>>>concerning biotechnology, particularly as they relate to the issue of
>>>global food security. If and when time permits, I highly recommend
>>>reading both of them.
