Sure.
First of all, genomics is the study of genes, so it can be applied both to genetically modified crops, to GMOs, like you mentioned, as well as to other traditional breeding methods and quite a wide range of different breeding methods. For example, I talked about frost-tolerant wheat. That has actually been developed through a non-GMO method. I also talked about higher-yielding crops, and we are looking at GMO approaches to those.
There have been lots of questions about genetically modified foods. It's important to note that certain genetically modified foods are offering very good advantages to this region. For example, about 75% to 80% of canola growers in this region are using genetically modified canola because of the advantages it confers on the farm. Having said that, it's very important that we be aware of consumer acceptability, while also being aware of what our export markets are concerned with in terms of genetically modified crops.
