On June 17, the European Parliament will vote on a proposal regarding the future regulation of plants derived from new genomic techniques (NGT). Before this vote, on June 16, farmers, beekeepers, environmental organizations, and citizens from across Europe will gather in Strasbourg to demand the maintenance of essential safeguards, including traceability, risk assessment, and consumer labeling. The coalition, which includes UNAF, believes that these measures are essential to ensure transparency, allow consumers to make informed choices, and ensure the coexistence of different agricultural systems. They also play a crucial role in enabling the monitoring and assessment of potential impacts on biodiversity and pollinators.
