This sixth and last part of the interview with Dr. Theirry Vrain at his Innisfree farm in the Comox Valley covers the closing statement from Thierry regarding a seeming contradiction with regard to Genetically Modified organisms. On one side, these GMO are not being subjected to safety test by food and health administrations of Canada or the US because these organisms are supposedly substantially equivalent to the non GMO counterparts. But on the other side, the patent office has granted patents for these GM products on the basis that these organisms are uniquely different from any other out there.
In the second part of the video, Thierry answers the question not directly related to GMO, but a very important aspect of soil-plant-bacteria relationship, that of nitrogen fixing.
