There is no evidence that GMOs have improved food production.
There is no known information that indicates GMOs are easier to grown than non-GMOs.
GMOs (genetically modified food) may create allergies.
They can, however, this has to be clearly marked due to the prohibition against mixing certain types of food.
Israel is not against genetically modified food, but most Israeli food comes from Europe. Therefore, GMOs are rare in Israel.
Organic foods do not contain additives and preservatives that may be harmful to health. They also have not had synthetic fertilizers and pesticides used during growth, except possibly in cases that are allowed by the USDA. They do not contain GMOs unless cross pollination with GMO occurred during growth. In that case, there could be small amounts of GMOs. For those reasons, organic food is healthier.

Regulation of food began as early as the 1800s and food labeling regulation arose out of that. Recently, requiring GMOs to be labeled has been a major debate, mostly between consumers and companies who produce GMOs, food companies, and grocers. To this date, GMO ingredients are not required to be listed on food labels.
Organic and GM food is not exactly opposite, but foods that are grown and sold as "100% organic" cannot intentionally contain GMOs. It is possible, though, that cross pollination of GMOs with organic crops of the same kind could happen unintentionally.
Spread of GMOs is the unwanted cross pollination of GMO crops with non-GMO and organically grown crops. Unchecked spread means that it is being allowed to happen without measures to avoid it being taken.
Yes, the public should know if the food they buy contain GMOs.
People buy organic food because they do not want GMOs, artificial preservatives and additives, pesticides, and other harmful substances in their food.
