you probably saw
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monsanto,
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetically_modified_crops. you could somehow
build the article around the stakeholders and what they gain and loose, if
they are heard or not. some stakeholders and the reason for beeing one:
patent holder (like monsanto), invents it, get patent fees from farmers
law maker (member of parliament), government, decides the usage, may get
money from lobbyists, may work for monsanto
research institution, researcher, may get funding from monsanto, make
studies, invents
farmer, uses it, may get higher yield, may use monsanto herbicide as his
crop is resitant to it, may ge sued by monsanto for patent infringement
consumer, eats it, may want a label, two cases: (1) is modified: e.g.
genetically modified rice sold, (2) modified crop used: chicken feed with
genetically modified beans

Perhaps the title of the article should be without the

It's been a while I created a Wikipedia
article so I went for the GMO
controversy.

Hopefully it will be allowed to stand alone and not merged with any other
international GMO discussion.
Nonetheless, I am inviting one of you to review it. Here is
how<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reviewing>
.
I am also holding a hangout on how the whole process went down for new
editors. Email me if interested.
