  The Hawaii County Council faces another decision this week about genetically modified crops.  The Council will decide whether to appeal a federal judge’s ruling that invalidated a ban on open-air cultivation of GMO crops.  That finding said that state law pre-empts any county legislation on the issue.  There may be another development this week involving GMO crops and China.  HPR’s Bill Dorman has details on that in today’s Asia Minute.

Bill Dorman has been the news director at Hawaiʻi Public Radio since 2011.
