This study on rats shows that exposure to glyphosate and a mixture of glyphosate, 2,4-D and dicamba, often used in conjunction with herbicide-tolerant GM crops, can have severe effects on gut structure and function. […]

Concerns raised over the U.S. government’s approval of HB4 genetically engineered wheat, due to serious risks to public health, the environment, and farmers’ livelihoods. […] This study provides strong evidence that diversification increases long-term financial profitability, biodiversity, soil quality, and climate change mitigation benefits. […] National and international laws and regulations governing the release of genetically modified microbes should operationalize the precautionary principle to protect human health and the environment, with robust pre-release risk assessment and continuous post-release monitoring. […] – This report examines how public development banks can support the transformation of food systems toward sustainability and equity by investing in agroecology. […] The article summarises advances in genome editing applications that show at-scale outdoor deployment outside of containment and controlled facilities is approaching feasibility, potentially exposing organisms to active biological agents and necessitating new risk assessment frameworks. […] A broken and unjust food system does not need to be made more resilient—it needs to be transformed to support resilient societies. […] A study has found that CRISPR/Cas gene-editing unintentionally disrupts multiple gene functions in a way that is passed to successive cell generations. […] New report uncovers how corporate-led digitalization of farming is reshaping power, deepening dependency, and challenging sustainability. It also highlights the farmer-led innovations building resilient food systems, and calls for change. […] – A seminal 2000 paper which claimed that glyphosate was not a health risk to humans has been retracted by the journal which published it, citing various ethical concerns. […] |
