What absolutely astounds me about these new regulations is that such precautions would be standard practice as minimums for any agricultural field trial that I took part in during the 1970's. Such a practice would be for tests and not just GMO. As an example: Quercus shumardii (Shumard Red Oaks) can only be grown/raised in areas that are at least 50 miles away from any other growing oaks of any type. This is due to problems related to airborne cross pollination. If the state of Texas takes that much care/concern about an ornamental shade tree you would think that the US government might have minimum standards for genetically altered plants.
