Abstract: The proper GM legislation should not be for the current GM crops –as semifinished products– but proper transgenic plant varieties should be produced that meet the requirements of GMO law. Some Member States of the EU and also Hungary should legislate GMO that only allows the cultivation of transgenic plant varieties wherein gene flow and gene escape are excluded. Until such final products are not produced, the GM varieties must not be cultivated in the interest of the protection of the flora and fauna moreover of the traditional and organic production.

Keywords: coexistence; gene flow; gene escape; seed production; organic farming
