I live in a small farm in Ohio in the state's capital and largest city, Columbus.
Ohio is a beautiful state!  What type of farming do you do?
Mostly corn farming and stuff like that, Ohio has such an interesting history, its name derives from the Seneca language, and means "great river" or "large creek."
Are there a lot of rivers or creeks in Ohio?
Well I think they were referring to the Ohio River when they meant large river in particular, but yes there are a lot of other rivers too.
How is your corn field doing?  It's kind of dry where I live and farmers are getting worried about their crops!
Well we use genetically modified corn, so it can withstand a bit more of a dry season than normal corn, so it's doing alright as of now.
Good to hear!  I have cornflakes every morning for breakfast and I wouldn't want to have to change to something else!
Genetically modified food
Genetically modified foods (GM foods), also known as genetically engineered foods (GE foods), or bioengineered foods are foods produced from organisms that have had changes introduced into their DNA using the methods of genetic engineering. Genetic engineering techniques allow for the introduction of new traits as well as greater control over traits when compared to previous methods, such as selective breeding and mutation breeding.
Commercial sale of genetically modified foods began in 1994, when Calgene first marketed its unsuccessful Flavr Savr delayed-ripening tomato
