"Results in this study demonstrate that GMO strategies use available information, extract and transform it through resource investments that are not compensated by energy-efficient results, and this trend are likely to increase due to ecosystem reaction. Moreover, resources invested into a process that stores information in seed that does not maximize power is counterproductive, and this singular approach reduces opportunities to explore other patterns and alternative plant breeding and production system strategies that may provide more consistent and sustainable system performance in the long term."
"The current situation in the EU can be summarized by the paradoxical conclusion that GMO is safe to eat, but only when produced outside the Member States."
