Benefits for whom? Peasant farmers forced to buy seed containing terminator genes don't get a benefit. The only people that benefit are the companies manufacturing the stuff.

Sure, prices might go down in the short term, but as was pointed out in another article in this thread, 90% of GM crops are produced by one company (Monsanto). That's a monopoly, which is guranteed to drive prices up in the future.
