Abstract:
A Genetically Modified Organism (GMO) is tracked using Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags. A bulk load of GMOs, which is intended for consumption by livestock only, is laced with RFID tags at or near a time of harvest. If the RFID tags appear in a product that is intended for human consumption, then the product is pulled from distribution, since it contains GMOs that are potentially harmful to humans if eaten.
