GM canola segregation row continues in Australia

GM campaigners continue to noisily protest against GrainCorp’s decision to mix genetically modified (GM) canola with conventional canola at some sites, in spite of GrainCorp’s assurance that GM-free segregations will still be offered. Gene Ethics director Bob Phelps said there was no longer any pretence GM and non-GM segregations would be maintained. ”GM companies have lied for 20 years, that GM and non-GM canola could and would be kept separate so farmers, processors and shoppers had GM-free choice,” Mr Phelps said.
