Yesterday the state beekeepers met with state officials to express their disagreements concerning the use of transgenic seeds in the field of Yucatan. They are seeking a way to stop the use of this gene that affects livestock and thus the entire food chain, as they claim. Dr. Eduardo Batllori Sampedro, Secretary of Urban Development and Environment [...] said that the state is taking action on this matter; it is working in a decree where the government will declare Yucatan as GM-free state.
