Question: Watch the fourth segment of Botany of Desire about the potato by clicking on the link. Watch from 83:42 to 113:00. This is the fourth segment (although we are watching it third!) on the potato. You do not need to watch the end yet, as you will do that later.

While you are watching this part, think about the history of the potato and its impacts on human civilization. The video also discusses the idea of genetically modified organisms (GMOs), a topic covered in this week's textbook reading. In your post, discuss your reaction to the history of the potato. Also, discuss your opinions on GMOs, using evidence to support your argument for/against the use of GMOs. Many people are misinformed about what they really are and may hold false ideas about this controversial subject. Has this been clarified for you? Do you think that GMOs will be a benefit or detriment to the future of food production? Why or why not?
