Impact of latest GE wheat find in Washington State

Brownfield visited with U.S Wheat Associates’ (USW) spokesperson Steve Mercer about the potential impact of the latest discovery of unapproved genetically modified wheat plants in a field in Washington State.

“We look at this situation as really, in many ways, a success,” Mercer says, “because it seems like everything was done correctly.”

Mercer also discusses USW’s stance on the testing of genetically modified wheat.
