  Jeff McNeely, chief scientist for the World Conservation Union (IUCN), said that the Swiss-based federation encouraged African countries to mill GM food. "There is no health threat from GMOs (genetically modified organisms).Even the threat of replanting is easy to deal with -- milling avoids the whole problem," he told Reuters.

  If you produce biofuel with food crops like corn, you won't have it to meet food demand," Jeff McNeely, chief scientist of IUCN said in an interview. ‘'The grain reserves of the world today are the lowest they have been in the last 10 to 15 years."
