GE Protest against EU Seed Directive in Germany

Greenpeace activists mark a maize field with signs showing corn with a 'question mark' indicating that 1 in 200 maize crops can be genetically contaminated if the draft EU seed directive is passed. Numerous organisations among them Greenpeace demand that the new EU Seed Directive guarantees the purity of seeds sold and planted in Europe instead of tolerating any levels of contamination in them.
