19 Jul 2011The European Union Parliament voted this week on draft legislation to give individual countries more authority and sovereignty in banning production of genetically modified (GM) crops.
The question for years has been when will the rules against biotechnology crop production in Europe really loosen, and the biotech optimists have suggested it will slowly occur with changes in European Union mandates. Now, reports are that sentiment is growing for allowing individual countries to do as they please instead of having EU oversight.
