Sažetak
Since the start of commercialisation in 1994 we are dialling with the challenges of control and monitoring of genetically modified plants trough policies and laboratory analysis. The number of hectares under genetically modified crops around the world is constantly increasing, also the nuber of new techniques of genetic modification. The existing legislation is complex and based primarily on risk assessments and the demanding and longtherm authorization process for each modification. The increasing number of genetically modified crops and the development of new types of genetic modifications pose a challenge for control and monitoring through both policies and laboratory analyzes. In accordance with national regulations, the Republic of Croatia uses all available mechanisms to preserve its agricultural and food production free from GMO’s. Croatia have operationalised an EU “opt-out” clause in relation to the cultivation of genetically modified crops in all of their territory. In addition to restrictive legislation, one of the most important mechanisms is the national monitoring carried out by the official inspection bodies and the Ministry of Agriculture in cooperation with the Croatian Agency for Agriculture and Food. Trougt these activities since 2015 more than 4000 samples of seeds and green leafs have been analyzed.This approach allows seeing the real state of the Croatian market and agricultural production, which is expected to be completely free from the presence of genetically modified organisms.
