According to the NY Times "Fears about the harmful effects of eating GM foods have proved to be largely without scientific basis."  Oddly the front page headline emphasized a different point: Doubts About A Promised Bounty--Genetically Modified Crops Have Failed to Lift Yields and Ease Pesticide Use.  Grist's Nathaneal Johnson seems to have studied the GMO issues more than any other journalist. On Farm To Table Talk he critiques the NY Times story and paints a picture of what we can learn from this very long GMO journey. Nate also shares his story from a small newspaper in Idaho, to a graduate student of Michael Pollan's at Berkeley to the Food and Farming editor for Grist,  www.grist.org

GMO Times–Nathaneal Johnson, GRIST - Farm To Table Talk

Is it best that our food is Local and Organic or Big and Conventional? Our view is “Both, and..” We don’t come to the table with a bias, except that good farming like good food comes in all shapes and sizes. Farm to Table Talk explores issues and the growing interest in the story of how and where the food on our tables is produced, processed and marketed. The host, Rodger Wasson is a food and agriculture veteran.  Although he was the first of his family to leave the grain and livestock farm after five generations farming in America,  he’s continually worked for and with farmers though-out America and around the world. From directly managing commodity boards and councils to presently building the strategic consultancy, Idea Farming Inc., the Farm to Table Talk podcast has been created to satisfy the curiosity of today’s engaged consumers.
