On the basis of the Hungarian request submitted to the European Commission, the production licence of the previously approved genetically modified (GM) maize and the to be approved GMO maize varieties will not cover the territory of Hungary – the Ministry of Agriculture (FM) told MTI on Tuesday.

The Ministry points out: the country’s committed stance on the fight for GMO exemption was not in vain, the process was successful. As a result Hungary can keep its GMO-free agriculture, thus accomplishing the objective in the Basic Law. (MTI)
