The EU has reached a landmark agreement on gene editing regulations, allowing farmers to utilize new breeding techniques to develop more resilient crops and livestock. This move addresses the pressing need for adaptation to climate change within the agricultural sector. The new rules are expected to facilitate the production of healthier animals and crops better equipped to withstand the challenges posed by a changing environment, bolstering food security and sustainability across the EU. The agreement marks a significant shift in EU policy towards gene editing, previously subject to strict regulations.
