KWS embraces the idea to support activities that lead to a reduction of harmful GHG emissions. The agricultural sector, in particular, has a great potential not only for carbon sequestration, but also for dedicated carbon avoidance measures.

What they argued
KWS welcomes the European Commissions intention to develop a European Biotech Act II. This initiative represents a key opportunity to strengthen Europes competitiveness, technological sovereignty, and resilience, while accelerating the transition to a sustainable bioeconomy.
KWS welcomes the ECs proposal for a distinct regulation of plants from NGTs and its intention to relieve conventional-like plants from the regulation of genetically modified organisms. This legislative proposal will allow the EU agri-food sector to stay globally competitive and support the EUs green deal ambitions. However, KWS would like to comment on some aspects.
KWS welcomes the EU Regulation on plants obtained by new genomic techniques (NGTs) as an urgently needed framework to ensure future-readiness and competitiveness for the European plant breeding sector and European farming.
KWS, as a leading German plant breeding company, welcomes and supports the EU Commissions initiative on the evaluation of the EU legislation on community plant variety rights (CPVR) as an important means to ensure that the EU legal framework continues to foster innovation and safeguard intellectual property in the plant breeding sector.
