No EU approval of GM maize 1507 before May - EFSA review
Controversial GM Maize 1507
Agra Europe
The European Commission will almost certainly not authorise EU cultivation of GM maize ‘1507’ before June, as the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) is reconsidering its risk management advice for the crop in light of new research.
EFSA is revisiting its risk mitigation recommendations on the dispersal of GM maize pollen and its effect on non-target pests, with the findings likely to be published at the end of May, a spokesperson told Agra Europe today (March 9).
