Night time GM crop decontamination in Lincolnshire



Genetic Engineering Network has just received reports of a night-time GM
action in Lincolnshire on Monday 2nd July.

Rowan Tilly and one other person spent five hours last night damaging a farm
scale trial of genetically modified spring oil seed rape. This morning members
of the press visited the site and talked with Rowan Tilly.

The site at Low Burnham, Lincolnshire (grid ref SE 776 018) had strong local
opposition. Local people had previously tried to stop the planting of the GM
seed, but failed. The crop was due to flower.
