Genetically Engineered Crops' Authorizations in the US and the EU: a Struggle Against the Clock

Richard Danvers Smart, Matthias Blum, Justus Wesseler

Research output: Working paper

Abstract

The regulation of genetically engineered crops is important for society: ensuring their safety for humans and the environment. Their authorization starts with a scientific step and ends with a political step. Trends in the time taken for their authorization in the European Union are that they are decreasing, but in the United States there is a break in the overall trend: initially it decreased until 1998 after which it increased.
