Sir, - Can Dr Philip J. Dix (May 21st) tell me why the American company Monsanto needs to test genetically altered sugar beet now in Ireland having, as he writes, already tested the same material in nine other European countries?
Is there a shortage of land for such testing in Monsanto's America? -Yours, etc
An Phriomh Sr, Caiseal Mumhan, Co Thiobraid Arann.
