  1. COEXISTENCE IN NORTH DAKOTA Brad Brummond September 2005

  2. SITUATION • North Dakota is a national leader in • Certified organic production • Oil seeds (flax and sunflower) • Cereal grains • North Dakota is increasing it’s acres of transgenic crops • Soybeans • Corn

  3. SITUATION • Organic and IP markets have low to no tolerance for transgenic crops. • Biotech markets need pure seed for traits to work. • World market is increasingly demanding specialized and branded products.

  4. HOW TO PROTECT MARKETS • Products need to be segregated and genetic drift contained. • Agriculture needs to work together to guarantee markets. • If markets can not be met we lose markets and income for North Dakota.

  5. ISSUES (AS IDENTIFIED CWG) • Liability • Segregation • Tolerances • Seed Certification Standards • Germ Plasm Purity • Opportunity and Consequences • Neighbor Relations and Communication • Education of Consumers

  6. COEXISTENCE WORKING GROUP • July 02-05 • Made up of stakeholders • Developed Best Management Practices • Organic growers and one conventional grower withdrew in protest over BMPs. • See handout of BMPs

  7. HOW DO WE COEXIST • Communication • Industry • University • Regulatory • Producers • Seedstocks • If we do not communicate and help each other we all lose.

  8. HOW DO WE COEXIST • Strict segregation practices must be followed. • Equipment cleanout • Facilities clean • Tarp trucks • Dedicated resources

  9. HOW DO WE COEXIST • We must maintain genetic purity. • If we do not have pure lots how can we serve our markets? • Buffer strips • Distance • Pretest seed • Planting dates

  10. OTHER WAYS • Understand contracts and risk • Be a good neighbor • Insurance??

  11. ISSUES YET TO BE RESOLVED • How far is far enough? • Liability? • Tolerances? • What to do with unintended presence in seedlots?

  12. WHERE ARE WE NOW? • BMPs developed • Communication started • Other states and nations continuing efforts. • North Dakota was one of the first efforts in coexistence.

  13. CONCLUSION • We must remember that coexistence is a journey, not a destination. Brad Brummond North Dakota Coexistence Coordinator
