Philipine farmers' group warns against importing rice from the US

A militant farmers’ group on Tuesday warned the National Food Authority (NFA) against importing rice particularly from the United States as these may be genetically modified. In a telephone interview with GMANews.TV, Kilusang Magbubukid ng Pilipinas spokesman Carl Ala said importing rice from the US increases the danger of exposing local consumers to genetically modified rice.
