GE Products "in the Pipeline"
Biotech companies are experimenting with virtually every plant food on earth. Many of these tests are still in laboratories or greenhouses. But when a new GE variety gets nearer to commercialization, the plants are released into the environment first in field tests, where the companies can observe the crops as they grow and can analyze them when they are harvested. Unfortunately, these tests are rarely, if ever, established to collect data for determining the environmental effects of GE crops. Instead, companies use these trials to promote their GE crops to farmers and to propagate seed for future commercial sales. Most of the University-based field trials consist of a single plot or a few small plots (often half an acre or less) planted just one season, while industry conducts hundreds of larger field tests throughout the world every year.
