Reminder - Call for your testimonial on GM Alfalfa

What would be the impact of the introduction of GM alfalfa on your farming operations? Genetically modified (GM) alfalfa has been approved for planting in the US and is one step away from being sold as seed in Canada. The Organic Federation of Canada joins the effort of the Canadian Biotechnology Action Network (CBAN) to collect organic farmers and stakeholders' concerns about the foreseen impact of GM alfalfa on their operations. To voice your concern, click on Organic Federation Canada’s Blog.

The testimonials and comments received will help the sector prepare a strategy when the new House of Commons Agriculture Committee will resume its activities after the election of the next government.

Minutes of the last Agri Committee meeting held March 24th can be read here.
