Monsanto Seeks Greenlight for GM Wheat

Why Seek Approval? U.S. vs. EU Marketability O' Canada & Africa References

Permission Pending from http://www.jwp.bc.ca/westdakota/left2.htm

With the ever increasing controversy over the genetic modification of food, GM crop producing companies such as Monsanto are forced to seek assurances of their product's acceptance prior to production. If GM wheat is to hit the shelves sometime in the near future, then Monsanto wants to make sure that there will be a market ready and waiting for it when that time comes.

This website will investigate the reasoning behind Monsanto's move to seek the U.S. wheat industry's approval and support of GM wheat, the marketability of GM crops in the U.S. as opposed to in the EU, and other potential global markets for GM products.
