【B1】 [br] 【B9】
The Tomato Growers Association, or TGA, has set out to grow a super tomato at an experimental farm near San Diego, California. Employing biotechnology and developments in DNA research, the TGA has determined to grow the "tomato of tomorrow." By emitting a repellent in the form of an odor, the tomato plant would be able to fight off attacks by insects. It would resist disease and rot, and would maintain its shape when shipped at the bottom of a load of tons of tomatoes.
The skin would be tough, to permit it to be harvested by machine without damage. Its heavy, thick leaves would prevent it form becoming sunburned. All tomatoes on a plant would ripen at the same time, to prevent the loss from machine harvest of under-or-over ripened fruit. And it would be just as juicy and tasty as the consumer wants it to be.
While development of this plant will prove to be extremely ex pensive, TGA scientists believe that if they can achieve their goal, the industry will eventually benefit from the many advantages and cost savings, particularly from harvest labor expenses and ship ping loss, that the new tomato will bring.
