Ban of GMOs

In May 2006, the Polish president Lech Kaczynski has signed a ban on the sale and registration of genetically modified seeds. The ban had been approved by both chambers of the parliament and slams European legislation, which does not allow for general bans of GMOs.

GMO-free regions

Since February 2006, all 16 regions of Poland have declared themselves GMO-free. Poland therefore joins Greece and Austria as the third country with a complete "GMO-free" status.

GMO-free farms

There are now more than 300 farms, from different parts of Poland, declared GMO free zones.
