Tiffany Tompkins: Organics NZ CEO on the impact of genetic modification on the value of our primary sector exports

There are calls for more discussion around genetic modification.   An Institute of Economic Research report, commissioned by Organics Aotearoa New Zealand, reveals genetic modification could reduce the value of primary sector exports by up to $20 billion a year.   It estimates GMO-free branding adds an extra 59% on the value of our exports.   Organics NZ chief executive Tiffany Tompkins told Mike Hosking there's a range of opinion on the subject.  She says the Government should slow down, open up the conversation and include farmers more proactively so we can understand the cost-benefit analysis.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
