Friends of the Earth International, September 2010: Every year, the International Service for the Acquisition of Agri-Biotech Applications, which is partly funded by the biotech industry, publishes figures on the cultivation of GM crops around the world. This annual review is never short on hyperbole. In response we publish a fully referenced report analysing the area of GM crops in the world, and providing evidence on their impacts in the countries that have planted them.

Who Benefits from GM crops? - 2007 executive summary
-
Friends of the Earth International, January 2007: Summary from the report 'Who benefits from GM crops? An Analysis of the global performance of genetically modified (GM) crops 1996-2006'. In 2006 the spread of Genetically Modified (GM) crops worldwide showed signs of stalling. Production of GM crops on a large scale continued to be limited to a few crops and countries and have not addressed the main agricultural problems and challenges facing farmers in most countries. They have not proven to be superior to conventional crops, and the ‘second generation’ GM farm crops with attractive “food traits” promised by the industry has not appeared.

contamination genetique afrique
-
Les Amis de la Terre International, 2002: Ce fascicule aborde quelques-unes des grandes questions posées par les organismes génétiquement modifiés (OGM) dans le monde. Il décrit plusieurs cas de
contamination de champs et de la chaîne alimentaire de l'homme par une variété
d'OGM interdits dont l'utilisation n'est pas réglementée par les structures juridiques
de différents pays à travers le monde. Il résume enfin quelques méthodes
d'expérimentation visant à détecter la présence d'OGM.
