FDA urged to require testing methods for biotech crops
The Grocery Manufacturers of America (GMA) urged the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to require that testing methods be put in place before new biotech crops are released into the marketplace.
In written comments to FDA, GMA said it strongly supports a mandatory premarket notification process for biotech foods, and suggested that requiring a testing method for a biotech crop would permit organizations "throughout the food chain to have confidence in the identity of the product."
