WARSAW, Poland, May 20 (UPI) -- Poland's Environment Ministry says it has authored a bill that would keep genetically modified organisms out of some Polish regions.
The ministry said the bill would not constitute a complete ban on cultivating transgenic plants, but would effectively create zones free of genetically modified organisms, or GMOs, in the country, Poland Radio reported Tuesday.
European Union laws prevent member states from creating outright bans on transgenic food. Officials said current Polish regulations on GMOs, which are designed to protect the country's agriculture, contradict the EU regulations.
