The logo of French \'Les faucheurs volontaires\' (Volunteer trimmers of GMO) is seen as demonstrators stand in front of the booth of French union \'la confederation paysanne\' (farmers union) during an action against GMO at the International Agricultural Fair on March 6, 2010 in Paris. The European Commission authorised, on March 2, the cultivation of a genetically modified potato, developed by BASF, the first such green light for 12 years. The issue of so-called \'frankenfoods\' has long been a matter of fierce debate in Europe and the commission stressed that the Amflora potato in question would be able to be grown only for \'industrial use\' including animal feed, rather than for human consumption.
