Farm Scale Trial locations - Autumn 2002

The locations shown below are the latest sites for Farm Scale Trials of genetically modified (GM) crops. They have been announced by DEFRA, and are due to start in August 2002. See below for planting sites from other years. The sites are listed here in county order, and colour coded according to the crop being grown.

The Government has provided only a grid reference and the parish for each site, not addresses of actual farms.
