Update

I question the fact that this person (for what pertains his fight to introduce GMO corn in Italy) is "low relevance". In 2010 the NYT published a long article about him (http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/24/world/europe/24modify.html?_r=0). Mr. Zanonato's position is a minority position in Italy, so what?

The page should be updated to reflect the May 8th 2013 decision from the European Court of Justice (Order of the Court - 8 May 2013 Fidenato Case C-542/12). Here is the decision in Italian and in French. The ruling is important because it states that under EU law an EU member state cannot prevent subject farmers that want to grow GMO to an authorizatin procedure IF the GMOs have already been properly authorized under EU rules and regulations (notice that is my short and rough summary: unfortunately as of today there is no official English text available).

Indeed this page is overlong and it should be edited and made more readable, but I don't agree that it is not relevant.

The person described doesn't have a Italian wikipedia's page. In fact, no-one knows him in Italy (reference material come all from the same auto-produced base). In GM maize debate, their position is a clear minorance. I want to enphatize that I'm absolutely not against their position, but this page is a clear self-promotion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Louisbeta (talk • contribs) 15:47, 8 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This page is clear self-promotion, there isn't any encyclopedic relevance. --Crepuscolo1910 (talk) 10:02, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
