Sowing Organic Seeds on Monsanto GE Testing Field in Netherlands

With the help of two confetti machines Greenpeace activists sow organic flower seeds mixture on a Monsanto testing field with genetically engineered maize. Greenpeace hereby makes the test unusable because the flowers will grow faster than the maize, and will prevent the spread of genetically engineered pollen. The banner reads: "Zaai Veilig of Zaai Niet" or in English: "Sow safely or don't sow at all". Greenpeace is against these testing fields because of the unpredictable results for humankind and the environment.
