Today more than a third of all cotton grown is genetically modified despite the ever growing protests from environmental organizations.
New cultivation techniques along with the introduction of GM cotton has had devastating consequences amongst India's subsistence farmers.Their overheads, as well as their debts, have shot up. Unable to pay off their loans many have been pushed to suicide; an estimated 200,000 farmers have taken that step in the last ten years.
