CROP EVOLUTION AND HUMAN CIVILIZATION
CROP EVOLUTION AND HUMAN CIVILIZATION
• Humans Have Always Guided the Evolution of Crops!
• A small samples of wild plants were chosen and domesticated
• 10,000 years of Selection
• All crops we grow today were once wild plants. But no crop would survive in the wild any more
• Crops, strains and genes have moved around the globe

GMO SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND REGULATIONS
GMO SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND REGULATIONS
• Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety • to the Convention on Biological Diversity
• regulates the international trade of GMOs with those countries that haveratified the CPB. Regulations about information and approval proceduresshould ensure especially for developing countries that GM crops are not imported and grown without the knowledge of the national authorities. Like in other national and international regulations on biotechnology, thePrecautionary Principle is applied in the Protocol.
• The US, Canada, Australia and a number of other countries have not signed or ratified the CPB.

GMO LAW in EUGMO LAW in EU• Contained Use Directive 98/81/EC • Deliberate Release Directive 2001/18
exclusively cover the use of GMO
• Novel Food/Novel Feed Regulation 1829/2003 • Traceability and Labeling Regulation 1830/2003
cover both GMO and food/feed produced fromGMO
GMO LAW in PolandGMO LAW in Poland
• GMO Act is in force since 2001, together with implementing decrees, but at the moment undergoes second revision. According to proposed changes, it will still be possible formally to release GMOs into the environment and place GM products on the market.
GMO LAW in PolandGMO LAW in Poland
• Acts regulating GMO issues in Poland provide for a detailed and complex control of the GMO production and processing
• The control involves inter alia: risk assessment, quantitative and qualitative control of food, feed and other products.
• Consummers’ rights are also respected
GMO LAW in PolandGMO LAW in Poland
• However, the government issued its „framework position” concerning GMOs. According to this position, the government is against the deliberate release of GMOs into the environment, the introduction of GM products other than food and feed into the market and placing of GM food on the market, unless it is imported from outside or from EU and not being processed on Polish territory. The proposed changes also introduce new restrictions to the release of GMO in to environment.
GMO LAW in PolandGMO LAW in Poland
• According to the last revision of Seed Act,sowing material of GM varieties is not to be allowed for commercial use on the territory of the Republic of Poland.Genetically modified varieties are not to be registered in the national variety registry.
• Last revision of Feed Act introduced 2 years of vacatio legis for import and use of GM feed components.
Is GMO the Sole Answer to Global Food Problems?
• The curently proposed revision of the GMO Act introduces further restrictions to growing GM plants in Poland.
