GM FLAX SEED OFF THE MARKET (via Agweb) June 22, 2001 The Leader-Post (Regina) A8 Jason Warick SASKATOON -- A genetically-modified flax seed developed at the University of Saskatchewan has, according to this story, been taken off the market because of European fears the variety will contaminate other flax produced in Canada. The story says that the last of the 200,000 bushels of Triffid flax seed worth at least $2.5 million was rounded up from farms across the Prairies and crushed earlier this year and de-registered April 1.
