FDA和EPA已在不同程度上同意了Northrup King公司的Bt玉米。FDA总结了对该公司Bt玉米的市场前自愿报告的反映。这一综合报告已经完成,它表明来自Bt玉米的米粒、饲料和青饲料都与传统杂交玉米无不同之处,能够满足食品有关的安全条款。 EPA也同意在今年春季NK公司在美国中西部种植供给10000公顷Bt玉米种子的种子生产田。今年夏季收获的Bt玉米种子将在控制下装袋,但是否用于1997年春季农民播种仍有待于EPA的同意。今年夏季NK公司的Bt玉米种子生产田将分布在四个州:Illinois、Iowa、Nebraska和Wisconsin。生产的8个玉米杂种适合于第四、六和八地区。今年夏天的种子生产将努力达到去年冬天在智利的Bt杂种作物的收获。 NK公司正在等待EPA批准其Bt玉米杂种。与此同时,NK公司申请并已得到在1996

EPA also agreed this spring that NK will plant seed-producing fields that supply 10,000 hectares of Bt corn seed in the Midwestern United States. Bt corn seeds harvested this summer will be bagged under control, but whether they are used for planting farmers in the spring of 1997 remains to be agreed by the EPA. This summer NK’s Bt corn seed production fields will be distributed in four states: Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska and Wisconsin. The eight maize hybrids produced are suitable for the fourth, sixth and eighth regions. This summer’s seed production will work hard to reach the harvest of the Bt hybrid crop in Chile last winter. NK is awaiting EPA approval of its Bt corn hybrids. In the meantime, NK applied and got it in 1996
