Guidance Documents for Nutritional and Safety Assessment of Feeds from GM Plants - Animal Nutrition with Transgenic Plants - page 47

of GM plants, which will need to be addressed
by the scientii c community in the coming
years.
We hope that this chapter achieves our
initial objective; namely, to of er the reader
an overview of the nutritional and safety
assessment of GM plants and derived feed in
the EU and to provide some useful insights
on the strategies currently in place in some
countries around the world. By no means do
we expect to have addressed all aspects
exhaustively, but if we have managed to
stimulate your curiosity and to of er you
guidance for further research in this area,
our time has been well spent.
