Farm group files EU court challenge to new genetic engineering rules

Original: Bauernstimme: Direktklage beim Europäischen Gericht gegen Neue Gentechnik-Verordnung (NGT) eingereicht https://www. baue

The German farmers' association Bauernstimme has filed a direct action at the European Court against the EU's new genetic engineering regulation (NGT), which loosens rules for certain gene-edited crops. The group argues the law undermines labelling and traceability requirements for agriculture. The case adds to growing resistance from farming and environmental organisations to the EU's deregulation of new genomic techniques.

Why now: The lawsuit directly challenges a recently adopted EU deregulation of gene-editing, a contentious issue for farmers and consumers.
