Alfalfa rejected by foreign buyers after it tested for GMO's that came from Washington fields!

The USDA will have to consider some action to deal with the cross contamination of Round Up ready Alfalfa with non GMO Alfalfa in Washington fields.  This cross contamination threatens trade with foreign buyers as GM Alfalfa is banned in 64 countries.  The farmer in this case didn’t even know he was growing GM crops which clearly shows that the dangers of cross contamination of GMO and Non-GMO crops is real.  Here’s a link to the story in the New York Daily News – http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/usda-mulls-action-discovery-gmo-alfalfa-washington-article-1.1457709
