GM and Non-GM Supply Chains: Their Co-Existence and Traceability
June 5, 2009| |
Co-Extra, an EU initiative on the co-existence and traceability of GM and non-GM supply chains, has published the final results of four years of scientific research on the management of GMO and non-GMO production and their derivates. More than 100 abstracts, covering topics such as methods for managing gene flow, detection of GM ingredients in foods and feeds, legal, liability and redress issues and technologies for managing the supply chain, are included in the document. Experiences of non-EU countries, particularly from the developing world, on co-existence and traceability are also highlighted.
