The article doesn’t mention glyphosate. Everyone has their own beliefs about GMO. I personally don’t mind eating GMO crops.
The thing I don’t want is increased levels of pesticide residue on my vegetables. Glyphosate goes hand in hand with GMO crops in other, unregulated, markets.
TBH it really seems like a very poor article. While I’m actually in favor of revisiting the GMO regulations, this article only presents one point of view, the positive benefits of GMO, and pretty much ignores the potential negatives.
Great article. I personally hope this ban is lifted, but I’m also worried about who does it.
I would prefer we shy away from roundup ready crops, but would love some crops with built in resistance to disease, like BT crop.

In other words,typical NZ journalism.
