RESUMO
Abstract Regulation of GM crops prior to their commercial release requires research under controlled conditions, either in confined field trials, in greenhouses, and/or in the laboratory. Authorizations in Argentina can be obtained for experimental or confined field trials and “counter-season” production of regulated seed. These trials represent the first controlled introduction of GM crops in the environment. The goal is to prevent dissemination of GM pollen, seed, or plant parts outside the growing area and avoid consumption by humans and animals. During the trials, data is also collected on agronomic performance and potential environmental impacts. The purpose of this document is to provide a summary of the regulatory requirements governing contained and confined field trials of GM crops in Argentina.
