Monsanto Gives Up on GM Growth in European Union | Common Dreams
20.7.13
Monsanto Gives Up on GM Growth in European Union | Common Dreams: Major biotech corporation Monsanto announced Wednesday that it is throwing in the towel in its fight to cultivate new genetically modified foods in the European Union—a move that could create the chance for European farming to focus on sustainable practices "that offer real advances for food production and rural communities," said Greenpeace's Mark Breddy.
However, food justice and environmental groups warned that the fight is not over. Monsanto says that it will continue its push to import its products in the EU, primarily for use in animal feed and biofuels, even if it can't cultivate its controversial products on EU soil.
