Save Our Seeds

Saatgut ist die Grundlage unserer Ernährung. Es steht am Anfang und am Ende eines Pflanzenlebens. Die Vielfalt und freie Zugänglichkeit dieses Menschheitserbes zu erhalten, das von Generation zu Generation weitergegeben wird, ist die Aufgabe von Save Our Seeds.

EU Commission proposes new organic rules

The EU Commission has published a proposal how to revise the regulation of organic production and labelling. The International Federation of Organic Agriculture IFOAM has cautiously welcomed the proposal. It also entails to set the labelling threshold for accidental contamination with GMO at the same 0,9% as for conventional food and feed. So far no specific standards on accidential contamination are set in the rules, leaving room for different interpretations.</p><p><a href="http://europa.eu.int/rapid/pressReleasesAction.do?reference=IP/05/1679&format=HTML&aged=0&language=EN&guiLanguage=de">EUROPA - Rapid - Press Releases</a></p><p><p><a href="http://www.saveourseeds.org/downloads/IFOAM_PR211205_RevisonRegualtion.pdf">IFOAM Press Release</a></p><p><p><a href="http://www.foeeurope.org/press/2005/HH_22_Dec_contamination.htm">FoE Europe Press Release</a></p><p>
