Judge halts GM alfalfa plantings until USDA completes study - 2007/05/05 02:38 This thread discusses the Content article: Judge halts GM alfalfa plantings until USDA completes study

My question is - when will the "burden of proof" (and expense) lay with those who plant GE crops or "conventional" crops?

By that I mean - why does the expense of maintaining buffer zones AGAINST pesticide drift and GE cross-pollination fall to the organic farmer and not those who plant or spray their crops with non-organic products or who plant GE crops which may contaminate organic fields?
