GMO Answers
GMO Answers is an initiative committed to responding to your questions about how food is grown. Its goal is to make information about biotechnology in food and agriculture easier to access and understand.
GMO Answers is funded by the members of The Council for Biotechnology Information, which includes BASF, Bayer CropScience, Dow AgroSciences, DuPont, Monsanto Company and Syngenta. Our members are dedicated to the responsible development and application of plant biotechnology.
- GMO Compass
The task of GMO Compass is to collect objective, science-based information on the use of genetic engineering in the agri-food industry and present it to the public in a way that is easy to understand and readily accessible.
- International Association for Plant Biotechnology (IAPB)
The International Association of Plant Tissue Culture and Biotechnology (IAPTC&B), renamed the International Association of Plant Biotechnology (IAPB), boasts nearly 2,000 members spanning 85 countries and, as such, is the largest society of its kind.
