Statement by Zippy Duvall, President, American Farm Bureau Federation, Regarding President Obama Signing National Biotech Disclosure Into Law
WASHINGTON, D.C., July 29, 2016 - "President Obama's signature today will put a stop to the harmful patchwork of state GMO labeling laws and set in place a uniform, national disclosure system that will provide balanced, accurate information to consumers. For decades, biotechnology has made it possible for farmers to grow safe and healthful crops while reducing their environmental impact. We are pleased that Congress and the administration have moved swiftly to prevent consumer confusion and protect agricultural innovation." Source: www.fb.org
