La Fuente de Vida de Mexico: Maiz
Mexico has a rich variety of corn razes and culture around the crop. Recent Mexico’s policies rejecting the entry of GMO corn for consumption have aroused discomfort from the US government that is trying to push the GMO corn into Mexican territory.
This infographic aims to inform about the biodiversity of Mexico’s corn and the negative impact that GMO corn has on the agricultural sector.
