For a great number of reasons, but it was accomplished by something called fear mongering. It boils down to simple elementary economics aka money. If a country imports more than it exports finally the money runs out.
Because Europe's cost of production will always supersede that of the US, they have to have something "special" about theirs so that it can be sold at a premium to people who have been told by the powers that be that GMOs are dangerous for their health. If you weren't scared of the cheaper US grain why would you buy the more expensive European grain?
It irks me that some who went to medical school have the audacity to tell people that GMOs are dangerous. They have no reason to believe that other than they heard it somewhere from some study that is totally bogus.
I've said it before and I'll say it again... There has not been one single illness related to GMOs in the 18 years that they have been on the market.
Alcohol is man made and people die from it every day, even innocent people die from it everyday but you wont a whole pile of people trying to stop its production. No one, I repeat NO ONE has been found to have an illness linked to GMO consumption but yet there is a whole world of misinformed ignorant people trying to spread fear to stop their production despite their benefits.
I could go on all day about the fallacies involved with anti-GMO garbage but it's a waste of all of our time. I realize for the most part I'm singing to the choir here.
