Tight security for GM-crop tests

The Environmental Risk Management Authority (Erma) yesterday received its first application in three years to field-test a GM crop at Lincoln.

In 2002, protesters trashed three years of research on GM potatoes by the Lincoln-based company Crop and Food Research.

The attack followed an incident in 1999 when the Wild Greens group destroyed a GM potato trial at Lincoln.
