CropLife Europe, the European association representing sustainable crop protection solutions in the area of pesticides and biopesticides, digital and precision farming and plant biotech innovation, provides financial support to Green Biotech Europe Deutschland (GBE-D) that engages with German stakeholders in the context of plant biotechnology in agriculture and food. CropLife Europe does not undertake advocacy activities in Germany, but commissions GBE-D to engage on behalf of CropLife Europe. GBE-D advocates for an enabling and science-based framework for plant biotechnology. Advocacy involves discussions with representatives of the Federal Chancellery, Federal Ministries and members of the German Parliament. The focus is particularly on the need for changes to the legal framework for New Genomic Technologies (NGT) and the need for an efficient and fast authorisation process for the import of GM plants into the EU. In addition, events are organised to discuss and exchange views with representatives of the Federal Chancellery, German Federal Ministries and Members of the German Parliament.
