Farmers opposing genetically modified (GM) crops are angry Victorian Agriculture Minister Bob Cameron will not meet them during a visit today to Horsham in the state's south-west.

The Network of Concerned Farmers' Wimmera representative, Geoffrey Carracher, says he was promised talks with the Minister after his canola crop was contaminated with GM material.

Mr Carracher says he has called the Minister several times, but is being ignored.

Mr Carracher says he is still uncertain if he will have to cover losses caused by the contamination.

"There's some matters that I'd like to talk to the Minister about, or the Minister's adviser about because I have an account that I have to pay by the end of the month and I'd like to talk to them about it because maybe it's not my responsibility," he said.
