Monsanto to fight potential lawsuit by organic farmer whose land ruined by GMOs

Monsanto to fight potential lawsuit by organic farmer whose land ruined by GMOs

Redman has declared that perfect purity is "unrealistic" and that a maximum contamination threshold needs to be established for GM contamination of organics.
