- Greenpeace says GM crop part of “secret experiment”
- Activists use whipper snippers to destroy crop trial
- Feeding tests show “risks associated with GM crops”
GREENPEACE activists have attacked a genetically modified wheat crop being grown at a CSIRO experimental station in Canberra.
The group claims the trial crop is part of a secret experiment which will involve human feeding trials later this year.
Greenpeace said two of its members used whipper snippers to remove the wheat from a CSIRO site at Ginninderra in Canberra’s north.
The attack came after CSIRO denied a Freedom of Information request for more information about the trials.
Greenpeace has called for the organisation to reveal what financial arrangements it has with GM companies such as the US-based multinational Monsanto.
