Greenpeace is being accused of trying to make money out of a report which is scathing of genetically modified wheat trials. [...] The CSIRO says it’s confident it’s complied with appropriate processes to identify and deal with potential conflicts of interest. The Grains Research and Development Corporation says the Greenpeace findings are “garbage”, saying GM doesn’t pose risk to health or the environment. Chairman Keith Perrett says the environmental lobby group’s being “deceitful”. “It is misleading the Australian consumer,” he said.
