Hyderabad stands on the banks of Musi river, which divides the historic old city and the new city.
Musi appeared in the documentary Food Evolution which was
screened the evening he was presented the 2017 Kleckner Award in Des Moines.
Yet the real power of“Food Evolution”
comes from its on-screen interviews with people like Motlatsi Musi, a South African farmer who describes how
GMOs have improved his life.
Motlatsi Musi grows maize,
beans, potatoes, breeding pigs and cows on 21 hectares he acquired in 2004 through the Land Redistribution for Agricultural Development Program(LRAD) in South Africa.
Musi's mother was an anti-apartheid activist who was
absent from his life for long stretches of time, usually because she was in jail for protesting the abuses of the government.
An early adopter of GM technology in South Africa, Musi started growing Bt maize as a trial in 2005,
about the time one of his sons was ready for college.
Motlatsi Musi was presented the 2017 Kleckner Award
by the Global Farmer Network on Tuesday, October 17 in Des Moines, Iowa at a reception hosted by the Global Farmer Network Foundation and CropLife International.
