FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: JANUARY 3, 2014 

Washington, D.C. – Statement of Just Label It’s Executive Director, Scott Faber on USDA’s draft Environmental Impact Statement of Dow AgroScience’s 2,4-D resistant genetically engineered corn and soybeans:

“Relying on dangerous weed killers like 2,4-D to combat the growth of super weeds will just keep us on the same chemical treadmill. No wonder consumers want the right to know whether their food is from the GE crops that have caused the explosion of super weeds. As today’s USDA study shows, super weeds have now spread to 27 states.”
