Dear readers,

the widespread German ‘husbandry tier’ labelling also includes regulations on GMO-free animal feed. However, these are hidden in the details and hardly known. To make matters worse, these criteria have just been watered down.

GMO-free products are still very important to the vast majority of consumers, so an additional ‘Non GMO’ seal would help. In the run-up to Anuga 2025, we have taken a close look at this issue.

On the opening day of the trade fair, Anuga will also focus on the current challenges facing the food industry as a result of the upcoming new EU regulation on new genetic engineering (NGT) in a panel discussion organised by VLOG in collaboration with ENGA and IFOAM. The EU consultations on NGT will enter the next round in October, and in Germany the ministries are currently coordinating the federal government's position on this issue.

We look forward to seeing you at Anuga in Cologne from 4 to 8 October.
Feel free to make an appointment with us!
