The Polish Ministry of Agriculture (MinAg) issued new draft labeling voluntary standards for food products free from genetic engineering (GE), including for animal products derived from livestock not fed with GE feeds and/or products. The draft standard would include a “non-GMO” label. MinAg plans to submit the draft legislation to the Upper Chamber of the Polish Parliament (Sejm) in fall 2018, after public comments are taken into consideration.
