It is intended to be grown and eaten in parts of the world where [[Vitamin A deficiency]] is prevalent. Golden rice has been opposed by activists, such as in the [[Philippines]]. In 2016 more than 100 [[Nobel laureate]]s encouraged the use of [[genetically modified organism]]s, such as golden rice, for the benefits these could bring.
