Now is the time to speak up if you want to stop the introduction of more GM maize into our food chain. Du Pont Pioneer published an application in the Beeld newspaper for the intentional introduction/trial release of TC1507 x NK603 and TC1507 x MON810 and TC1507 x MON810 x NK603. These maize lines express […] Read in browser »
The UN’s climate chief has appealed to the oil and gas industry to become the solution rather than the problem to addressing the causes of global warming.
