Field trials and commercial cultivation in Austria


Field trials

Only three field trials with genetically modified plants have ever been conducted in Austria, which took place in 1996 and 1997. Two trials looked at potatoes with a modified carbohydrate metabolism, and the third experiment studied herbicide tolerant maize.

Commercial cultivation

Citing safety concerns, the Austrian government placed a moratorium on cultivating the EU-authorised maize lines Bt176, MON810, and T25. Austria recently added rapeseed line GT73 to the list, making commercial production of GMOs in Austria very unlikely over the next few years.
