CSIRO GE wheat trials to ’forge ahead’

GREENPEACE has been widely castigated and condemned for destroying scientific trials of Genetically Modified wheat at CSIRO facilities in Canberra last week, using a whipper snipper, but scientists conducting the trials have vowed to push on. CSIRO plant industry chief, Jeremy Burdon, said the data from the Canberra GM wheat trial had been compromised and would now have to be re-started next year. But he said research into the technology would forge ahead despite the damage caused by Greenpeace.
