I don't understand the objection.   Pesticides are not the same as herbicides.   GMO-s that make BT (which is a pesticide) need less chemical pesticides sprayed on them.  This is documented by anti-GMO people as well as pro-GMO.   GMOs that are resistant to herbicides (like Roundup) do develop resistance, which leads to an increase in chemical herbicides that are used.  The article says both things.  It is neutral and accurate.
