A Federal Government agency has been accused of manipulating the results of a survey showing more people are ready to accept genetically modified food. The Biotechnology Australia survey found 73 per cent of consumers accept GM food compared to 46 per cent in 2005. The Gene Ethics Network says the survey questions were loaded to promote GM crops as environmentally friendly. But Biotechnology Australia’s Craig Cormack says the survey holds up to scrutiny and reflects a true change in attitudes.
