So British scientists have said today that we are facing a food "Armageddon" because of the expansion of the population, which is set to soar to 9billion by 2050 and we have been warned that starvation will spread.
Government chief scientist Professor Sir John Beddington said biotechnology, such as genetically modified crops, is "extremely important".
So in light of this, do you think we NEED to invest in GM crops now to sustain the world's population because the alternative is not nice?
