Minneapolis / MN. (gmoa) GMO Answers, an initiative committed to responding to consumer questions about how their food is grown, released the following statement in response to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) final GMO disclosure rule.
«At GMO Answers, our goal is to ensure that the facts about GMOs are easily accessible so consumers can make informed decisions about the food they eat.
«GMOs are the most carefully researched and tested agricultural products on the market with more than two decades of scientific evidence proving their health, safety, and environmental benefits. By requiring GMO labelling, our hope is that the USDA’s final disclosure rule will encourage Americans who remain confused about GMOs to seek answers, and ultimately make food choices based on science, not fear.
«For those with questions about the USDA’s ruling and what it means for the food they and their families eat, GMO Answers remains as committed as ever to providing answers. We invite anyone with questions about GMOs to submit them on our website, GMOAnswers.com, for answers from our network of over 200 volunteer experts, including farmers, scientists, nutritionists, and more.»
