In March, on my small farm near Eldoret, I planted six hectares of maize for livestock feed. COMMERCIALISE GM CROPSThe tragedy is that we know what we need to do, which is to commercialise the GM crops that Kenyan researchers have developed and tested in recent years. Researchers planted GM maize and non-GM maize side-by-side and also took steps to prevent pollen from drifting onto other farms. The government has imported hundreds of tonnes of maize from South Africa and Mexico, also yellow maize from Russia and Ukraine, which grow Bt maize. The government must allow the commercialisation stage of GM maize by Kalro.
