What potential danger? Even the Europeans have said CRISPR is no different from conventional breeding. The climate situation is too serious for us to turn away from any safe new breeding tool.

I thought the article would be about all the new research into climate adapted rice. It is called *modern* farmer after all.

I am looking for a source for blue bonnet rice seed for sale for growing on my small farm. Is there anyone who can help me to source them?

I am glad to see much of the work being done by traditional breeding, not genetic modification; I find the potential danger of CRISPR and even earlier methods of genetic modification troublesome. I have been aware of the Lundberg brand for some time, and after this article, will be a more-regular purchaser; the research work they are doing is important. I don’t know the Isbell brand; will search that out as well.
