GMO u vrijeme pandemije

S Bayerovim preuzimanjem Monsanta i s pojavom koronavirusa, utihnula je medijska prezentacija GMO-a i usporene su razvojne aktivnosti u agrokemijskoj industriji. Posljednji pokušaj promocije GMO-a u Hrvatskoj obavio je u Splitu nobelovac Richard Roberts dva tjedna prije službenog proglašenja pandemije. Ulaskom u vrijeme pandemije GMO je izgubio prioritetni profil, pa se ispod radara javnosti provuklo nekoliko važnih događaja, koji zaslužuju pažljiviji pristup i upozorenja: sudska presuda zbog ilegalne sjetve GM-usjeva, europska dozvola za GM-soju „XtendFlex“, Bayerovo otkazivanje herbicida glifozata, te pojava novih znanstvenih hvalospjeva o GM-usjevima kao panaceji. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- After the Bayer's acquisition of Monsanto and with the coronavirus outburst, a media appearance of GMO has silenced and development activities in agrochemical industry have slowed down. The last try of GMO promotion in Croatia was performed in Split by Nobel laureates Richard Roberts two weeks before the pandemics officially started. By entering in pandemic times, the priority status of GMO was lost, and, therefore, several important events occurred unnoticed. More careful approach and relevant warnings are warranted for these issues, as follows: court ruling against illegal seeding of GM-crops, an European license for GM-soy „XtendFlex“, Bayer's withdrawal from herbicide glyphosate, and the emergence of new claims from scientists which celebrate GM-crops as a panacea.
