TASMANIA could be the only state to keep a ban on genetically modified food crops. Two states moved yesterday to allow GM canola crops, but Tasmanian Primary Industries Minister David Llewellyn continued to resist. New South Wales and Victoria will lift the ban on GM canola, saying it will open export opportunities in the US and Canada. Mr Llewellyn said there were benefits in being GM-free.
