Hi folks! I'm translating a film about transgenic products and its consequences on health.
The film is French and at some point the director refers to the "GMO scythers", the actual phrase is "Release all the GMO scythers", apparently there's 54 of them.
I guess the "scythers" are some kind of activists who fight GMO farming by scything transgenic plants but I can't find the proper word to name it. I came up with "Segadores", but it doesn't sound so good.
Could you please help me?
TIA!

resistencia contra transgénicos (GMO)
Es importante tener en cuenta que la resistencia contra los transgénicos nunca ha tenido tanta fuerza en Francia y otros países.
Entre esa resistencia se cuentan a los cortadores voluntarios de transgénicos. (scythers?)
