The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA’s) Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) is seeking comments on recommendations to update the List of Bioengineered Foods (List) under the National Bioengineered Food Disclosure Standard (NBFDS). AMS seeks comment on four issues: (1) whether it should add insect-resistant sugarcane to the List; (2) whether it should add the modifier “virus-resistant” to summer squash, which already is on the List; (3) whether additional information is available to support adding cowpea or golden rice to the List; and (4) whether AMS should consider adding any other foods to the List. Comments are due to AMS by August 24, 2020.
