Australian GM contamination lawsuit really about ’choice’ not about GM crops

AUSTRALIAN Centre for Plant Functional Genomics (ACPFG) chief executive officer, Professor Peter Langridge, says the Kojonup ”contamination” issue (Marsh versus Baxter case) is really about farmers’ freedom of choice and not genetically modified crops. [...] he said the organic movement was trying to prevent GM crops being grown and restrict freedom of choice for farmers, by imposing ”arbitrary and unreasonable” rules on organic produce.
