My suggestion is to seek mor info on Organic farming But do not initiate or support BT seeds.These are Genetically modified and are harmful to health.Please see the sample example extract below

 BT rice_Elite Indica transgenic rice containing a synthetic gene from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) expressing Cry1Ac toxin had enhanced resistance to stem borer. The cry gene was driven by the ubiquitin promoter from maize and its transcription was terminated by the terminator of the nos gene from Agrobacterium, tnos; and accompanied by an antibiotic (hygromycin) resistance gene and the bacterial gus gene as negative and positive selection markers respectively. The transformed rice lines had up to 0.25% of their total protein as Cry1Ac toxin. The successful lines caused 100% mortality when consumed by yellow stem borer larvae. Production of toxin at high levels (approaching 1% of the cellular protein) is considered important in preventing resistance in the target insect, but that will mean a lot of toxin consumed by humans eating the rice. Cry1Ac is known to be a strong immunogen, and has also been found to be sufficiently similar to known allergens to cause concern .

Pyramiding, stacking and fusing genes are being used with a vengeance against pests, with little consideration for the safety of the rice, which would be consumed as food.
