Animal feed groups seek GM clarity from European Commission

Fefac, Fediol and Coceral are all lobbying the Commission, accusing the EU authority of prevaricating on requests for GM import authorisations.
The feed industry groups argues that the EU could face serious animal feed shortages unless the Commission relaxes its resistance to GM crops. There are 12 GM crop import authorisations awaiting final decision by the EU College of Commissioners, following completion of the EFSA scientific assessment and EU risk management process.
