Anger over first large-scale GM canola trial in Western Australia
Farmers who don’t grow genetically modified canola will be forced to sue those that do over economic losses in a move that could divide communities, a farmers’ group says. [...] ”It’s a blatant disregard for the process that was promised,” spokeswoman for the Network of Concerned Farmers Julie Newman said. Ms Newman is part of an industry reference group that was finalising the report which was expected to be released by the end of this year.
