"However, Dao The Anh, director of Vietnam's Center 
for Agrarian Systems Research and Development, has voiced concern about 
the social and economic consequences GM crops could bring, including 
their potential impact on biodiversity.
As supplies of genetically engineered seeds are monopolized by a few 
corporations, some farmers worry about maintaining sustainable access to GM technology, as well as possible future price hikes that could render the seeds unaffordable for poor farmers."
