The new agricultural policy report of the German government declares that mandatory labeling for GE products is exhaustively regulated at EU level. This marks a turnaround in German GE policy since the coalition agreement of the German government in 2013 stated that it will advocate for EU mandatory labeling of products derived from animals fed with GE plants.
