Report Summary
The approval of genetically modified soybean variety DBN-09004-6 for the EU market is under scrutiny due to its resistance to glufosinate and glyphosate, herbicides with contested health and environmental risks. Concerns include the lack of long-term studies on toxicological effects and pesticide residue interactions. Such herbicide-resistant crops may increase pesticide use, harm biodiversity, and create competitive disadvantages for EU farmers. The resolution calls for applying the precautionary principle and reforming GMO authorization procedures. It also highlights democratic deficits in current decision-making processes.
