Poland: Agricultural Biotechnology Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Since 2006 Poland has been one of the biggest opponents of the use of Genetically Modified Plants (GMO). Polish law prohibits marketing and cultivation of “GMO” plants or products. On January 1, 2017, a ban on the import of such feed is scheduled to enter into force. Originally this ban was to apply in 2008, but was delayed first until 2013 then again until 2017 due to strong opposition from Poland’s livestock industry.
