GM wheat a threat to farmers: Greenpeace

Australian wheat farmers stand to lose billions of dollars if the CSIRO’s trials of genetically modified wheat are allowed to continue, Greenpeace says. A report by the environmental group accuses the government research organisation of “serious oversights” when it comes to managing the risks of its field trials currently taking place across the country. “The economic implications of GM wheat are dire,” Greenpeace spokeswoman Laura Kelly said in a statement on Thursday.
