Funny how conflicts of interest always seem to go in one direction.... eeeevil corporations. Environmentalists would never, ever lie and cheat to get outcomes they favor.

That says it all right there, the french are behind the technology curve and bad mouth GMO crops to 'compete' .

"Science" devotees insist that we all believe that "scientists" only tell the truth. That there is nothing that would compel them to lie. They are all incapable of lying and everything they say must be absolutely true. Like that "evolution" is valid, even though, among other things, "speciation", the defining quality of "evolution" was never seen or even determined to be possible. Even though the Michelson-Morley Experiment, on which "relativity" is based, still shows seasonal variations, in violation of "relativity".

So there's a question that needs to be asked.

How many of the other 60% of the articles were *un*favorable? Because that's the real question.

I find it significant that this particular study did not choose to ask that question.

Good point, Guillemaud has a history of trying to find fault with GMO products.

The Chinese probably would like to keep American products out also.

I find it interesting that a paper written by a scientist working for Earth Justice wouldn't be considered biased. Not all conflicts of interest are financial.
Double standard anyone?

lol waaiiiittttt a sec. Lots of industries fund research into their own areas of expertise. Who do you think should pay for biotech research if not biotech? You think taxpayers should foot the bill FOR biotech 100% of the time? Get real.

Interesting that even in the group of studies that do have conflicts of interests, barely over half are favorable. That surprised the heck out of me, at least.

In other words, the considerable majority of all sampled studies are unfavorable to GM production.

Whenever I eat GMO garbage at restaurants and from the supermarkets (you know, the stuff without the non-GMO labels), I always feel lethargic and sleepy.

Its crazy how something is different with the food; it is especially severe when I eat canned non-organic vegetables etc. (could be the BPA in cans as well), but it is not surprising since many of the genetic changes (embedded toxins) in the food are meant to disrupt insects from eating it.
