What exactly is genetic engineering and do we need it? Tessa and Barnaby check out the genetically engineered potatoes being produced by Tony and Anne-Marie at Forest Research in Christchurch, New Zealand. The idea is to make a potato that is really nutritious and that also grows really well for people in countries where food is scarce. |
