Is one solution to global warming drougt conditions.

I always found it strange that GMO corporations don't focus more on plants that can survive with less water and fertilizer.

I mean some work is being done in that area like with tobacco plants using less water by not opening their stomata as often.

But mostly the GMO corporations focus on profit over usefulness. That's why we have corn and wheat that can be drenched in round up without dying. I guess, eventually, they'll consider mankind's global habitat decline.....
