Evolution of Bt-maize plantings in Spain (area in orange) and other EU Member States (area in grey) during 1997-2008, status in 2008 (black figures), and change from 2007 to 2008 (green and red figures). In 2008, France banned the cultivation of maize MON810 on its territory.

GMO Safety, 5/18/12 http://www.gmo-safety.eu/news/1416.plant-research-europe-genetic-engineering-field-trials.html Number of release experiments with GM plants in Europe is decreasing. By May 2012, only 41 new releases (27 from companies) were submitted in the E.U. compared to over 100 in 2009 “Plant research in Europe: Few new GM plants – Number of field trials still in decline”
