And speaking of junk science.

Size-wise or numbers-wise?

Maybe for a change we should make sure that our customers will actualy accept our NEW and improved product. Seems like they don`t have to at pesent due to world shortage of grain!! Maybe we should educate them or maybe we should listen to them, THEY are the customer, it`s their money, therefore their choice.

From where I sit it was the organic junkies that screwed up the European flax scene. They're the ones who needlessly inserted themselves between willing buyers and willing sellers.

And yes I've been denied all sorts of wonderful crop improvements because of expensive, time wasting, crazy regulations meant to appease the unappeasable.

We still have to educate the end user that they need our product, otherwise there is no point to more production. That means jumping past the politics to the people who need the food to survive.

So we may be forced to burn 2x-3x more fuel to grow crops that are not GMO? That makes envionmental sense!!! There is still no evidence what so ever that GMO crops are nutitionaly different than non-GMO.

"Maybe for a change we should make sure that our customers will actually accept our NEW and improved product"

The customers have never been the problem, it's the busybodies who think they know what's best for our customers that are the problem.

Parsley,

You are being logical and fair on this one.

If there is one thing I have learned from the flax event that has cost 100's of $ millions... organic growers didn't cause this... and any flax grower lost 20% of their income pronto after the gm contamination occured.

DID we LEARN anything from this Billion dollar blunder?

Are we farmers just stupid or what?

We can grow more... so we can get paid much less... wow... how smart we are!

Shouldn't the triffid gm event have been registered in the EU... before it was released?

Local or international, cott? You talking about the big Swede?
