This study has found that in fields where resistance to Bt has evolved in the US, the combination of Bt and RNA interference provides less protection from corn rootworm damage. […]

Being risk-informed is key to building resilient, ethical, and future-proof agrifood systems. […] Burkina Faso has formally shut down Target Malaria’s activities nationwide, reflecting growing scepticism over the safety, ethics, and necessity of GM mosquito experiments. […] This briefing summarises the concerns over genetically modifying nature. The consequences of releasing GM organisms into natural ecosystems are unpredictable and irreversible. […] The continued deployment of the feed-the-world myth works to suppress the real alternative – “a world that feeds itself” through approaches like agroecology that promote local sovereignty. […] This briefing details current regulatory frameworks, country-by-country project updates, and the key funders and institutions backing genome editing on the African continent. […] Three decades after the first GM crops were planted, the evidence is clear – biotech has overpromised and under-delivered. […] A comprehensive carcinogenicity study has found that low doses of glyphosate cause multiple types of cancer in rats. […] This study shows that GM crops designed for greater chemical input efficiency actually facilitate an increase in the use of pesticides. […] Environmental applications of GM microorganisms pose critical biosafety and wider governance risks. These warrant updating current risk assessment approaches and implementation of broader sustainability analysis and other methods of technology assessment. […] |
