LYMEC: GMO legislation is a black day for the internal market
Image source: sxc.hu
Reacting to the news, LYMEC President Alexander Plahr commented: "This is a black day for the internal market. In the future the same GMO crops will be allowed in some, but forbidden in other Member States. If any kind of crops has to be forbidden, this should be done on Union level instead and solely based on safety considerations. Allowing Member States to have arbitrary and diverging criteria such as 'to protect agricultural practices on socioeconomic grounds' will fragment the framework conditions for agricultural entrepreneurs in Europe. Either certain genetically modified seeds are safe for consumers and the environment alike in all of Europe, or they are unsafe in all of Europe. This is the only criteria that should be applied."
LYMEC Vice President Mette Lykke Nielsen adds: "This legislation, should it come into force, will lead to vastly different chances for farmers in different Member States. This actually is a step back towards national agricultural policy and the opposite of what should be done. Fragmenting the EU’s agricultural space only hurts us in the upcoming WTO talks vis-à-vis the big agricultural producers, namely China, the US and Brazil."
