I heard this on the radio today - I guess we have heard the same story over the past few months, but maybe not.
Marketplace: Opposition grows to 'pharma-crops' (http://marketplace.publicradio.org/display/web/2007/09/20/pharma_crops/)
"...Promoters of so-called bio-pharming hold out the promise of a bumper crop of cheaper pharmaceuticals -- everything from vaccines for Hepatitis B to insulin."
This could be quite interesting to see how the insulin is grown - as a bio-crop.
