NZ FARMERS WEEKLY "GE free status big plus for NZ" 18 August 2009, p. l4
New Zealand's GM-free status is worth potentially huge money for us says John Bostock.
The Hawke's Bay-based entrepreneur and food exporter said he made a significant premium on export maize to Japan and Korea compared with maize from the US which is now impossible to guarantee as GM-free.
He exported both conventional and organic food grade maize to these markets, where it is used for human consumption, making starch or animal feed.
