In the EU, the regulatory system for genetically modified (GM) crops comprises several directives, regulations and implementing regulations that oversee their deliberate release in the environment, their use in food and feed, as well as traceability and labelling. Prior to importation or cultivation, extensive regulatory dossiers should be prepared to demonstrate the safety of the GM crop to humans and the environment.
