According to the biotechnology industry, choosy consumers' disapproval of genetically modified (GM) food stifles a further development of biotechnology and deprives the undernourished part of the world population from essential tools to raise their food production. This conceptual paper raises basic issues that help to analyse whether indeed agricultural biotechnology industries respond to the need of the poor.
