Genetically modified organisms (GMOs):Elicitation of expert judgments of uncertainty in the risk assessment of herbicide-tolerant oilseed crops

(Before It's News)

Home of Kyle J. Norton for The Better of Living & Living Health Health risk assessment of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) cultivated for food or feed is under debate throughout the world, and very little data have been published on mid- or long-term toxicological studies with mammals.
Elicitation of expert judgments of uncertainty in the risk assessment of herbicide-tolerant oilseed crops
One of the lay public’s concerns about genetically modified (GM) organisms (GMO) and related emerging technologies is that not all the important risks are evaluated or even identified yet–and that ignorance of the unanticipated risks could lead to severe environmental or public health consequences. In the study of detailed interviews of seven leading experts on GM oilseed crops to obtain qualitative and quantitative information on their understanding of the uncertainties associated with the risks to agriculture from GM oilseed crops (canola or rapeseed), conducted by the Technical University of Denmark, indicated that the results of these elicitations revealed three issues of potential concern that are currently left outside the scope of risk assessments. These are
(1) the potential loss of the agronomic and environmental benefits of glyphosate (a herbicide widely used in no-till agriculture) due to the combined problems of glyphosate-tolerant canola and wheat volunteer plants,
(2) the growing problem of seed lot contamination, and
(3) the potential market impacts. The elicitations also identified two areas where knowledge is insufficient[10].
