Anger over GM mixing in Victoria and New South Wales (Australia)

GENETICALLY modified canola will be binned with non-GM varieties in Victoria and NSW next harvest, in a move that has outraged an anti-GM group. Bulk handler GrainCorp has changed its canola segregations in a bid to handle an estimated 100,000 tonnes of GM canola next harvest. The changes mean Round-Up Ready GM canola will be binned with conventional, Triazine Tolerant and Clearfield canola varieties. A separate bin, called CSO1A, excluding GM canola, will also be offered.
