Farmers encouraged the sale of the plant because it would assist them financially and spare them unnecessary additional labor. They wouldn't have to worry about spraying their crops with herbicides and …

In a word, the only true solution to settle the dispute between the differing views on transgenic plants release into nature is compromise.
