Dear Readers,

In less than two weeks, the second Non-GMO Summit will open its doors in Frankfurt, Germany. On the evening of 7 October 2024, we will start with a dinner together, on 8 October we will focus on the most relevant topics the Non-GMO sector currently has to discuss: the state of play of the EU’s (de-) regulation plans on New GMOs (NGTs/New Genomic Techniques) and how to deal with it, as well as the latest developments, trends and outlook on the worldwide Non-GMO markets. If you haven't registered yet, you are warmly invited to do it now.

Regarding the main three Non-GMO crops on the EU market, our fourth Non-GMO Market Report, quarterly published by ENGA, and produced in cooperation with Donau Soja and the ProTerra Foundation, shows that the EU Non-GMO market is expected to remain well supplied with soy, maize and rape in the current 2024/25 season.

Our third article fits perfectly with our Summit focus: The European Food Industry Raises Its Voice In Favour of Labelling And Transparency of NGTs. 376 companies, among them REWE group, SPAR Austria, dm-drogerie markt and Biocoop, came together to sign an open letter to EU Agriculture Ministers to call for labelling of New GMOs, transparency and freedom of choice through the entire value chain in order to continue Non-GMO production.

Kind regards, 
Heike Moldenhauer
Secretary General
