Engineering corn to control rootworm

Well, we are genetically engineering corn to control rootworm ... gosh, progress!

Of course, we could also follow the time-honored practices of crop rotation, pasturage and sensible land management to achieve the same goals, but I guess that's just too much work for the mega corps that run American farming today.

I know I just can't wait to have a corn tortilla with insecticide built right in ....
