Genetically Modified (GM) Crops in Western Australia

Genetic modification (GM) is a biotechnology technique that can be used to alter the characteristics of crop plants.

All dealings with GM crops in Australia are regulated under a national scheme that includes the Australian Gene Technology Act 2000 and corresponding state and territory legislation.
