Abstract

Genetski modificirani organizam (GMO) je organizam, uz iznimku ljudskih bida, u kojem je genetski materijal izmijenjen na način koji se ne pojavljuje prirodnim putem parenjem i/ili prirodnom rekombinacijom. Zbog izrazitih bojazni koje izazivaju pretpostavke o lošem utjecaju GMO-a na okoliš i zdravlje ljudi, Zajednička poljoprivredna politika Europske unije (ZPP) posveduje ovom području veliku pozornost. Ulaskom Hrvatske u EU, hrvatsko zakonodavstvo prati direktive Europskog parlamenta i Vijeda koje reguliraju pitanja GMO-a. Rezultati analize sadržaja zakonskih dokumenata ZPP-a iz razdoblja 2010.-2020. godine te sekundarnih izvora (znanstvene i stručne literature) koji obrađuju predmetnu problematiku pridonijet de poznavanju obilježja GMO-a i informiranosti proizvođača i potrošača. Osnovni cilj rada bio je identificirati ključna područja koja su regulirana zakonodavstvom ZPP-a u domeni GMO-a (zaštita okoliša, kvaliteta hrane, zdravlje ljudi). Hrvatski nacionalni propisi su usmjereni prvenstveno na očuvanje poljoprivredne i prehrambene proizvodnje bez GMO-a. Pored restriktivnog zakonodavstva, važnu ulogu imaju nacionalna tijela koja provode inspekcije i kontrole i Ministarstvo poljoprivrede s Agencijom za poljoprivredu i hranu. S društvene strane, potrošači imaju negativan stav prema GM hrani, te više cijene ekološku i prirodnu hranu.

Abstract (english)

A genetically modified organism (GMO) is an organism, with the exception of human beings, in which the genetic material has been altered in a way that does not occur naturally by mating and / or natural recombination. Due to the strong concerns raised by the assumptions about the negative impact of GMOs on the environment and human health, the EU's Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) is paying close attention to this area. With Croatia's accession to the EU, Croatian legislation follows the directives of the European Parliament and the Council governing GMO issues. Results of the analysis of the content of legal documents of the CAP from the period 2010-2020. and secondary sources (scientific and expert literature) that deal with the subject matter will contribute to the knowledge of the characteristics of GMOs and contribute to the information of producers and consumers. The main goal of this paper was to identify key areas regulated by CAP legislation in the field of GMOs (environmental protection, food quality, human health). Croatian national regulations are primarily aimed at preserving agricultural and food production without GMOs. In addition to restrictive legislation, an important role is put on national bodies conducting inspections and controls and the Ministry of Agriculture together with the Agency for Agriculture and Food. Regarding the social aspect of the problem, consumers have a negative attitude towards GM food, and value organic and natural food more.
