MON/DD/DOW—Hawaii counties can’t ban GMO testing fields: http://finance.yahoo.com/news/judge-hawaii-counties-cant-regulate-gmos-pesticides-215910026.html A federal judge has ruled that three Hawaii counties can't enact their own bans or regulations on genetically modified crops and pesticides, handing a victory to the major agriculture companies that fought the regulations. Circuit Judge Consuelo M. Callahan on Friday upheld a lower court's decision that said Hawaii law prohibits counties from regulating agricultural matters. The major ag-biotech companies run many field trials of pre-commercial products in remote areas of Hawaii.
