Monsanto set to halt GM push in Europe

 
 
"We will stop pushing deadly GMO food on Europe - They are too smart. We will continue in the USA where we own the government!" - Monsanto May Have Said
 
 
 
 


Monsanto plans to halt lobbying for its genetically modified plant varieties in Europe due to low demand from local farmers, a representative from the US agricultural giant told a German daily.

"We are no longer working on lobbying for more cultivation in Europe," Brandon Mitchner a representative for Monsanto’s European branch, Tageszeitung, said in an interview set to be published on Saturday.

"Currently we do not plan to apply for the approval of new genetically modified crops. The reason is, among other things, low demand of the farmers,” he continued.
