Janice and Ryan clowning around on a discussion panel.

Janice Person is a great friend to many people in the agriculture world. She’s passionate about cotton and loves people. Janice blogs at janiceperson.com and you can find her as @JPlovescotton on Twitter, Instagram and Periscope. If you haven’t investigated her Cotton 101 series, you’re missing out on some cool knowledge about a neat plant.

Recently, I had the opportunity to visit with Janice about a few of the topics she’s not only passionate about, but intimately knows and loves. During her visit to Montana, I asked Janice about Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) and where we can find resources to learn more about the topics. We also discussed how to handle controversial topics and a bit about sugar beet farming and how GMO technology has been so important to those farmers and their ability to continue doing business.

Janice shared with us two resources to learn more about Genetically Modified Organisms.

  • GMOanswers.com – a great place to find resources and perspectives of experts in the field.
  • Discover.Montsanto.com – the company’s landing page to answer questions transparently.
