Summary

In the spring of 2002, the Danish Minister for Food, Agriculture and Fisheries initiated
strategy work on the cultivation of authorised GM crops in Danish agriculture. The aim
was to produce a Danish model for the co-existence of GM, conventional and organic
crops in support of the free choice of consumers and to ensure development possibilities
for new and existing agricultural production forms. Three groups were set up, that were
assigned the task of presenting the scientific and legal problems as well as drawing up a
proposal for a Danish co-existence model. These groups were the analysis group
(working group), the legal group and the contact group.
