Cereals Canada President Cam Dahl can't understand why some organizations don't like modern agriculture.

Dahl notes modern agriculture is directly responsible for many of the luxuries we enjoy today.

"Agriculture is a choice for people and it's a productive business that allows farmers across the world to feed their families and send their kids to university and have vacations and have a productive economic life that wasn't available before the green revolution," he said.
