Traces of GM canola found in South Australia
19 Sep 2005

Genetically modified canola has been detected in 12 conventional canola trial crops in South Australia. Apart from SA, trace levels of genetically modified canola have already been detected in varieties of non-GM canola grown in National Variety Trials in WA, Victoria and NSW this year. The National Variety Trials program is funded and managed by the Grains Research and Development Corporation, which has 10 canola trial sites in South Australia. The same problem has been detected at another two trials sites in the South-East. The GM level detected was only 0.04 per cent - well below international market standards.
