Anger over first large-scale GM canola trial in Western Australia

Farmers who don’t grow genetically modified canola will be forced to sue those that do over economic losses in a move that could divide communities, a farmers’ group says.

Ms Newman is part of an industry reference group that was finalising the report which was expected to be released by the end of this year.
