Please also dig out if possible what the proposed benefits would be over the existing crops, as well as all the very many crops whose potential has not yet been explored. I'd be especially interested in any proposed benefits for smaller mixed farms as opposed to large heavily-chemicalised monocrop factory farms, especially as sustainable farming is now official agricultural development policy in Europe, looks like becoming so in Britain, it's the fastest growing sector in the US, and the only one that makes any sense at all in the Third World.
