The majority of @Europarl_EN voted for evidence-based regulation of new plant breeding. But thanks to numerous additions by critics, is there a threat of a new bureaucratic monster? @d_t_spencer & @landwirtinaus took a closer look. #NGTs #CRISPR #GGAC https://t.co/pKkdGcmsTZ

Follow the science! Grüne Gentechnik ist eine von vielen Antworten auf den Klimawandel, Ernährungssicherheit einer wachsenden Weltbevölkerung und steigende Nachfrage nach Bio-Rohstoffen - die EU hat die Wahl, sie mit zu gestalten oder die Entwicklung anderen zu überlassen. #NGT

Novel crop varieties obtained by new breeding techniques such as gene-editing are part of the solution to keep EU agriculture competitive, healthy, sustainable and eco-friendly. Huge benefit for farmers and consumers. Listen to the science !!!

Viennese plant biologists including @oeaw advocate #NGT, which will be discussed in the EU Parliament on Feb 6. The scientific answer is clear: Technologies such as CRISPR are safe and more efficient than conventional breeding. @dieGamon @SCHIEDER @wienerofficial @AngelikaWinzig

Tomorrow is a crucial day in the EU - a vote in the European Parliament will decide whether or not Europe is open to scientific innovation in plant briefing. Over 1000 scientists have demonstrated in support of gene editing ahead of the crunch vote. https://t.co/CwFUtuodHS
