GRAIN Producers Australia chairman, Peter Mailler, is concerned that an amateur film crew with links to Greenpeace may have prejudiced legal proceedings in the Kojonup GM canola case. GM canola farmers, Mick and Zanthe Baxter, agreed to speak to the student film crew late last month, before becoming aware the director, Louise Sales, had links to Greenpeace and to the Steve Marsh Benefit Fund. Last week, Slater & Gordon law firm declared they will represent Kojonup organic farmer, Steve Marsh, in pursuit of damages against the Baxters, for loss of income following the alleged GM contamination on his neighbouring farm late last year.
