Development and field testing of genetically modified
plants precede commercial use. When entering agricultural application, implications on landscape- and
regional level become more relevant but concepts and management to assess large-scale effects are still discussed
in science, administration, and in agricultural practice. It is an important subject, how effects of
large extent can reasonably be considered in risk analysis during the approval procedure, and efficiently
be monitored during commercial use of GMO.
|
The conference aims at compiling methods and strategies, which address the issues related to large scale
cultivation of GM plants. Topics include empirical work related to risk assessment, theoretical concepts, as
well as methodological aspects facing large spatial and temporal dimensions. Strategies to assess and
manage GMO shall be linked and compared with the regulation and management of systemic risks in other
fields of science and technology. |
