GM and Bt

I think the most interesting claim that Brody had in his report would be the part on the Bacillus thuringiensis bacterium. I think that it is interesting how this certain bacterium can be infused with crop and then that little bacterium can have such monumental affects on productivity and can diminish the use of chemicals on the crops. It’s hard for me to believe that this could be true and I wonder how they could have possibly figured that out. If something this small can have such an impact on farming, then what more could they do with genetically modified food and how could truly impact the world?
