South Australian farmers will be able to grow genetically modified (GM) crops from next season, under a move that has divided the state’s agriculture industry.

South Australian farmers will be able to grow genetically modified crops from next season, under a move that has divided the state’s agriculture industry. In 2004 a moratorium on growing GM food crops was imposed until 2025, but the government is now moving to reverse that. SA is the last mainland state to have a ban on GM farming.

The move comes after an independent report found the moratorium had cost SA farmers $33 million since 2004. Lobby group Gene Ethics said the only winners of GM farming would be foreign agriculture chemical producers and called for the ban to remain until 2025 as planned. The reversal is open for consultation for the next six-weeks but the government says it wants to make a decision before the next growing season.
