Philippines Golden Rice field trial vandalized

One of our Golden Rice field trials in the Philippines was vandalized on Thursday, 8 Aug 2013.
A full statement was issued immediately: Malnutrition fight goes on, Golden Rice research continues. Later in the day, Dr. Bruce Tolentino, IRRI’s deputy director general for communications and partnership, followed up with a video message: Golden Rice research continues.
