For the first time in Australia, the GRDC funded GM canola coexistence protocols were explained to oround 120 farmers in Williams, WA last night . Participants soon became aware that supplying non-GM markets for market specification is not a viable option if GM crops are commercially released under these existing protocols that have been widely endorsed by farming groups and industry partipants. There was outrage in the audience as farmers became aware of the impositions imposed on non-GM farmers and disgusted that industry had endorsed the protocols without consideration for farmers wishing to provide a GM-free choice for consumers.
