Co-inventor Ingo Potrykus says rice with 2 added genes will be available in 2013. One genecomes from maize, or corn, and the other froma soil bacterium.
Mr.Potrykus is retired from the Swiss FederalInstitute of Technology. He blames the delays on toomany rules about genetically modified crops.

2004年美國的路易斯安那州立大學舉行的首次實地試驗?，F在菲律賓已經開始測驗黃金米。但黃金米仍然沒有得到大范圍推廣使用。
發明人之一，印戈·伯特利庫斯說：“添加了兩個新基因的稻米將于2013年提供使用?！逼渲幸粋€基因提取自玉米，另一個提取自一種土壤細菌。
退休前，伯特利庫斯是瑞士聯邦理工學院的一員。他指責過多的規定限制了轉基因農作物的發展。
反對者說轉基因農作物和傳統植物的雜交可能會破壞環境。反對者還質疑基因食物食用的安全性。
伯特利庫斯說還從未出現過黃金米對環境或是人類造成危害的'現象。許多農業組織支持這項工程。
也不乏有像包括環境組織“綠色和平”的研究人員在內的批評者的聲音。幾個月前，他們質疑黃金米是否能解決維他命A的缺乏。他們說，在亞洲投入轉基因稻米可能會永久性改變傳統的稻米品種和野生的原種稻米。
