According to www.isaaa.org/:
The 5 lead biotech developing countries are China, India, Brazil, Argentina and South Africa – they grew 46% of global biotech crops, and have ~40% of world population.
Brazil ranks second only to the USA in biotech crop hectarage in the world, with 36.6 million hectares, and ... grows 21% of the global hectarage of 170 million hectares.... (2012).
If there is an autism-GMO connection we may be seeing it soon in the developing world.
