The Failures of the Green Revolution

It's true that we'd like the results to be a little better than they are:

"You hear a lot of hype from the industry about the benefits that GM crops will bring, but despite 30 years of research and 10 years of commercialisation we are still nowhere nearer to tackling these challenges than we were at the beginning," said Claire Oxborrow of Friends of the Earth. "The industry has not managed to bring a single product to the market that is able to tackle these issues."
Couldn't be anything at all to do with people screaming that no one should ever be allowed to test GM crops by, you know, growing them in a field and seeing what happens now, could it?

As, umm, organisations like Friends of the Earth have been doing?
