Australian Scientists have made a major break through in unlocking the genetic code of wheat.
.
The break through will allow the development of drought tolerant and disease resistant varieties of the plant that forms the staple diet of over 2.5 billion people.
.
CSIRO plant geneticist Richard Richards .. said that by “mapping” the location of potentially important genes, the work would enable researchers to home in on the “enormous diversity” of wheat, a plant that has evolved over millions of years.
Desirable traits could be genetically engineered or enhanced through faster conventional breeding programs.
.
Well done to the CSIRO.

BEWARE DANGER - GM wheat and GM anything is pushed and promoted by Monsanto and other corporate fascist globalist ‘ we will fully control you ‘ transnational companies. The CONTROL they want is VERY SCARY !
Tony Burke was on AM this morning in Rome pushing GM foods to help feed the world. This man is pushing something the majority of farmers and city consumers here and around the world do not want.
This is a comment I read about farmers in India -
Manmohan Singh - who with his gang is part of the global problem and in India too - also said that: “There was a general agreement that protectionism would be a wrong response to the present situation which would only accentuate the crisis.” Meaning: together with the other robbers, the BIS’s IMF and World Bank, we don’t want ‘protectionism’ - and the G-20 criminals who all know about the BIS ( Bank of International Settlements), because most are ‘governors’ there - made a plan to globally steal as usual, only they’ll call it ‘reform’ or something.
It was also agreed that international financial institutions like the World Bank, IMF and regional development banks should come out with new facilities to increase their assistance to the developing countries, he said.”
Yeah: like in India where thanks to this gang of robbers Monsanto too could bribe their way in. The effect? Official figures from the Indian Ministry of Agriculture do indeed confirm that in a huge humanitarian crisis, more than 1,000 farmers kill themselves here each month. Every month! In India last year at least 125.000 farmers in despair committed suicide. (one hundred and twenty five thousand human beings) That means that at least every 45 minutes some poor Indian farmer is driven into death by this usury system. Often leaving wife and children behind.
This is what IMF the World Bank and the other killers do too for instance, to take the Monsanto genetically modified genocide in India as an example. The british Daily Mail didn’t believe the situation was that bad, so they went here and wrote about it. Because it was even worse than expected. “Cruelly, it’s the young who are suffering most from the ‘GM Genocide’ - the very generation supposed to be lifted out of a life of hardship and misery by these ‘magic seeds’. Here in the suicide belt of India, the cost of the genetically modified future is murderously high.”
That is what was agreed upon in Washington: we just keep killing for power and profit.
