No, no, no, no! This will just make it easier for Big Ag (Monsanto, ConAgra, ADM, et al.) to dominate the market. The plant itself will be "improved" with foreign DNA so it can be mass-cultivated using chemical enhancements. Next will be the intentional squeezing out of strains that are non-GMO. Then margins will decrease for producers and varieties will be strictly limited. Then comes all the people who care doing little crowd-funded projects to preserve genetic variety. Don't think it could happen? Do a little research on corn or cotton or sunflowers or soybeans. Whether you ingest the stuff or not (I don't), this kind of thing only helps pave the way for truly nefarious corporate actors.
