Future of GE wheat lies with growers and providers

As the wheat industry continues its long progress toward the development of a commercially viable biotech wheat seed, it’s important to recognize where the industry has been, as well as where it hopes to end up. U.S. Wheat Associates Vice President, Director West Coast Office John Oades said discussions over biotech wheat varieties have been going on in one way or another for more than a decade. Many segments in the industry have had differing opinions, he said, on just what the solution should be to the question of biotech wheat. The industry as a whole, though, has come a long way from the early days of biotech research.
